Abstract
Marriage of different religions in Indonesia is not a new phenomenon anymore. At first, these
marriages were referred to as mixed marriages. However, after the enacting of Law No. 1 of
1974 on Marriage the meaning of mixed marriage is marriage between two different
nationalities, not marriages of different religions. The issues raised are how the arrangement of
marriages is different religions according to Law No. 1 of 1974 (as amended by Law No. 16 of
2019) on marriage and how the recording of marriages of different religions according to Law
No. 23 of 2006 concerning population administration. The purpose of the authorship of scientific
work in the form of this journal is to understand the arrangement of marriages of different
religions reviewed by Law No. 1 of 1974 (as amended by Law No. 16 of 2019) on Marriage and
to analyze the recording of marriages of different religions according to Law No. 23 of 2006 on
Population Administration. The method used in the writing of this research is the method of
normative juridical approach. The types of data sources used are primary and secondary data.
The method of data collection used is the collection of data by interviews and data collection
from literature, and data analysis using qualitative descriptive methods. The results obtained in
this study showed that, in Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage prohibits the existence of religious
groups. Law No. 23 of 2006 concerning population administration of the implementation of
marriages of different religions can be done in two ways. Namely, the determination of the court
and marriage is carried out abroad but after returning to Indonesia must be recorded in the Civil
Records Office. However, not all Civil Records Offices want to record marriages of different
religions. The Office of Population and Civil Registration will ask for the subjugation of one of
the religions to be recorded.
