Abstract

A notary is an appointed public official vested with legal authority to authenticate deeds and wield additional powers as outlined in the Notary Law (UUJN), or other pertinent legislations. With the Cyber Notary’s authority as referred to in the Explanation of Article 15 paragraph (3) UUJN at this time, many interpretations still need to be clarified and certain in its implementation. Therefore, this study will discuss the urgency of Cyber Notary authority in Indonesia and the conceptualization of Cyber Notary authority in UUJN concerning the legal certainty of Notaries as Reliability Certification Institutions. The research methodology utilized to address legal matters in this study is normative juridical. This particular approach applies a statutory and conceptual method to effectively resolve issues within the legal system. The study results show that the urgency of the Cyber Notary authority in Indonesia is to provide website authentication services to guarantee trust in electronic transactions. The conceptualization of Cyber Notary authority in the Elucidation of Article 15 paragraph (3) UUJN is nothing but to provide legal certainty that there is a new authority for Notaries to act as part of the Professional Reliability Certification Institution, which has the task of auditing and issuing Reliability Certificates in Electronic Translation. Although currently, the granting of this authority in UUJN has yet to be specifically regulated and explained. However, several provisions can be used as a legal basis for a Notary as a Professional Reliability Certification Institution, namely Article 10 paragraph (1) of the ITE Law and Article 73 PP 71 of 2019.
