Adopted Children, Inheritance, Legal HarmonisationAbstract
The position of adopted children in the Indonesian inheritance law system is still an issue that has not yet obtained complete legal certainty. The difference in approach between Law Number 1 Year 1974 on Marriage and the Civil Code (KUHPerdata) causes confusion in the implementation of inheritance rights for adopted children. This study aims to analyse how the legal position of adopted children in obtaining inheritance according to the two legal instruments, as well as to examine the urgency of harmonising norms in ensuring justice. This research uses a normative juridical approach by analysing primary legal materials in the form of laws and court decisions, as well as secondary legal materials in the form of journals, legal literature, and previous research results. Key informants interviewed included family law academics, religious court practitioners, and notaries as the application of inheritance law in practice. The results show that Law No. 1 Year 1974 does not explicitly regulate the inheritance rights of adopted children, while the Civil Code regulates that adopted children obtain the position of legal children with legal consequences of inheriting from adoptive parents, but cut off civil relations with biological parents. This imbalance shows the need for legal harmonisation that guarantees the rights of adopted children fairly and proportionally. Reformulation of the norm of inheritance of adopted children is an urgent need in the Indonesian family law system
