Legal protection for victims of trafficking, particularly the fulfillment of restitution rights, is regulated in Article 48 of Law Number 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of Trafficking in Persons. With regard to victims’ rights to restitution, this study aims to analyze the implementation of trafficking rights in the form of compensation (restitution) and analyze legal protection for victims of human crimes. Human trafficking through court websites. The type of research used is normative research. The use of this method is carried out through the review of legal materials, both primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. The approach used is a legal or statutory approach and a case approach or case approach by examining cases related to the problems in this study. Based on the data, it is known that victims of human trafficking from time to time continue to increase in various modes. Most of the victims were women and children, but some court decisions, especially the Jambi District Court, had very few rulings in the form of restitution decisions given to victims, so the verdicts given did not provide justice for victims. The implementation of restitution in fulfilling the rights of trafficking victims is difficult due to several juridical problems in the Trafficking in Persons Act as stipulated in the provisions of Articles 48 to 50, namely the absence of regulations or guidelines regarding procedures for calculating nominal losses, both material and immaterial that can be used as guidelines in the application of restitution sanctions.
