What happens to Indonesian diaspora land ownership after a change of citizenship?
Development summary
Yenni Novita Wulandari and Nisa Amalina Adlina examine what happens to the land rights of diaspora members who move from Indonesian to foreign citizenship, under the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA) and private international law. On their analysis, the change of citizenship ends the capacity to hold full ownership (Hak Milik) of land in Indonesia, and Article 21(3) UUPA requires the right to be relinquished within one year.
