Legal Protection of Children from The Results of Sirri's Marriage in The Perspective of Marriage Law in Ineonesia

Abstract

Normatively, in Indonesia the registration of a marriage is mandatory. Although the existence of the marriage law umbrella, namely Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage (which has later been amended by Law No. 16 of 2019) has been  relatively long, in reality there are still many who violate it. One of them is that there is still a phenomenon of unrecorded marriage (sirri marriage) in the community. This of course has an impact on legal certainty for children from the results of the sirri marriage. Therefore, this study discusses the juridical tijnauan regarding the position of children in marriage serially based on Law Number 16 of 2019 concerning Amendments to Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law.
