Adoption is a legal act that transfers the custody of a child from biological parents or
legal guardians to adoptive parents. In Indonesia, adoption is regulated by laws and
regulations that provide a clear legal basis for the procedures, requirements, and legal
implications of adoption. This study aims to examine the concept of adoption in
Indonesian positive law, its adoption procedures, and the legal implications for the
rights and obligations of adopted children. The method used in this study is a
descriptive-analytical normative research method, by analyzing various related laws
and regulations, such as Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection,
Government Regulation Number 54 of 2007 concerning the Implementation of
Adoption, and other related regulations. Based on this analysis, it was found that the
adoption process in Indonesia involves strict administrative and social stages, which
ensure the protection and welfare of children. In addition, adoption provides equal
rights to biological children in terms of care, education, and protection, although the
child's lineage and inheritance rights remain affected by applicable law. The legal
implications of adoption in Indonesia emphasize the obligations of adoptive parents to
provide good care and fulfill the rights of adopted children in accordance with existing
legal provisions.
