Abstract
Notaries in Indonesia have existed since the colonial period. Changes in technology and the continuous evolution of information bring a flow of change in all aspects of life, including the legal sector. However, the position of notaries in Indonesia has not undergone significant changes despite ongoing advancements. The promulgation of Law No. 2 of 2014 formally introduced the term “cyber notary” to Indonesian law. However, the idea of cyber notary is not practical because of legal obstacles that seem to form a legal paradox. This work analyzes the position of cyber notaries in Indonesia’s positive legal order and the challenges, adaptations, and compromises actually made to implement cyber notaries in Indonesia. Normative–juridical legal research is adopted as a research method by examining various legal theories and performing comparisons of related laws. This work also presents examples of successful cyber notary implementations from several countries. Results reveal that the implementation of cyber notaries in Indonesia has yet to meet expectations because interrelated laws still create legal paradoxes. This condition results in the inability of notaries in Indonesia to fully evolve into cyber notaries. Recommendations for stakeholders are presented as valuable insights.
Bahasa Abstract
Notaris di Indonesia telah eksis sejak masa kolonial hingga saat ini. Perubahan teknologi dan informasi yang terus berkembang membawa arus perubahan terhadap semua aspek kehidupan, termasuk pula terhadap sektor hukum. Namun jabatan notaris di Indonesia tidak banyak mengalami perubahan yang signifikan kendati perubahan yang terjadi. Diundangkannya Undang-Undang No. 2 Tahun 2014 juga memperkenalkan istilah cyber notary secara formil dalam konstelasi hukum Indonesia. Namun faktanya, gagasan cyber-notary ini tidak praktikal karena hambatan-hambatan hukum yang seolah-olah membentuk paradoks. Tulisan ini melakukan analisa mengenai kedudukan cyber-notary dalam tatanan hukum positif Indonesia, tantangan dan adaptasi serta kompromi yang secara riil dilakukan untuk mengimplementasikan cyber-notary. Penelitian hukum normatif-yuridis dipilih sebagai metode penelitian dengan cara meneliti berbagai teori hukum dan perbandingan antar hukum yang terkait. Disajikan pula contoh-contoh implementasi cyber-notary yang sukses dari beberapa negara. Dari hasil penelitian didapati bahwa pelaksanaan cyber-notary di Indonesia masih jauh dari harapan. Kondisi ini terjadi dikarenakan antar hukum yang terkait masih menciptakan paradoks hukum, sehingga mengakibatkan ketidak mampuan notaris di Indonesia untuk berkembang menjadi cyber-notary. Rekomendasi juga diberikan untuk para penerima manfaat sebagai masukan yang berharga.
