Property Certificate Renewal and Extension - Who It's For and What Are the Benefits

Property certificates are essential legal documents that establish ownership and rights over real estate properties. The most common types of property certificates in Indonesia are:

Ownership Rights (Full Ownership Rights): This certificate grants full ownership rights to the property and is usually issued for freehold properties (such as houses and land). Building Use Rights (Hak Guna Bangunan): This certificate grants the right to construct and own a building on land owned by the government or a private party. It is usually used for building use rights properties. Use Rights (Hak Guna Pakai): This certificate grants the right to use land owned by the state or a private party for a certain period. It is generally used for commercial and industrial purposes.

Leasehold Rights (Right of Lease): This certificate represents the right to rent a property from its owner for a specified period. A Certificate Renewal refers to the process of renewing or extending the validity period of certain types of certificates, such as Building Use Rights or Use Rights, which have a fixed validity period. The process and requirements for renewing such certificates may vary depending on local regulations and the type of certificate in question.
