Abstract

he Law No.1/1974 clearly stipulates that marriage must be registered at the
register office or at religious affairs office. Still, there are people who ignore it; they
let their marriage be unregistered. Although unregistered marriage is essentially
accepted from the religious aspect since it has met all the religious terms and
requirements, it is legally unjustifiable because it is not registered to the civil
marriage registrar. What has then become an issue is that the number of
unregistered marriages is significantly growing so that the couples do not have
authentic evidence which is an essential document for the legal security of their
marriage. An unregistered marriage unquestionably brings legal consequences to
the status of the couples (the husband and the wife), the status of their children, as
well as the status of their estate. There are many factors which contribute to the
phenomenon of unregistered marriages.
