The Inheritance Office is a government agency whose scope of work is under the Ministry of Law and Human Rights. The Inheritance Office has the task of representing and implementing the management of the interests of legal subjects in order to implement court decisions and/or determinations or interests by law in the field of inheritance and based on the provisions of laws and regulations. To carry out these tasks, the Inheritance Office carries out the function of making inheritance certificates. The results of the study concluded that the authority of the Inheritance Office in issuing certificates of inheritance rights is present to carry out its function in managing inheritance, especially in terms of inheritance to make a certificate of inheritance for the Eastern Foreign group other than Chinese. Normatively, the authority to issue a certificate of inheritance by BHP for a certain group does not exist attributively because there are no laws and regulations that specifically regulate in general that a certificate of inheritance for non-Chinese foreign eastern groups must be made by BHP, and Permenkumham 7/2021 itself does not further explain this authority. The authority of BHP to make a certificate of inheritance is only for a certain legal act, namely the registration of the transfer of land rights.
