Jakarta - Land parcel splitting is one of the most frequently\nrequested land services at the Land Office. This process is generally\ncarried out for various needs, such as dividing inheritance, selling\npart of a land plot, or developing housing estates that require plot\ndivision. \u201cLand parcel splitting is the process of dividing a land plot\nthat has one certificate into several parts, where each part will later\nhave its own certificate. After the splitting process is completed, the\nmaster certificate is declared no longer valid,\u201d explained Shamy Ardian,\nHead of the Public Relations and Protocol Bureau of the Ministry of\nAgrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning\/National Land Agency (ATR\/BPN), in\na statement on Wednesday (03\/06\/2026).<\/p>\n
Land parcel splitting can be carried out upon the application of the\nrights holder. A previously registered land parcel can be split into\nseveral new parcel units with the same legal status as the original land\nplot. This provision is regulated in Government Regulation Number 24 of\n1997 concerning Land Registration. The regulation stipulates that a\nmeasurement letter, land book, and new certificate will be created for\neach new parcel resulting from the split. Meanwhile, the data on the\nmaster land parcel will be annotated to indicate that a land parcel\nsplit has been performed.<\/p>\n
The documents that the public needs to prepare to apply for land\nparcel splitting include the original land certificate; photocopies of\nthe owner\u2019s identity card (KTP) and family card (KK); a written\napplication for the split; and the latest year\u2019s Land and Building Tax\nNotification Letter (SPPT PBB) along with proof of payment. For\ndevelopers, the required documents must also include a site plan from\nthe local government. Meanwhile, for inherited land, the applicant must\nattach a certificate of inheritance or deed of inheritance, as well as\nthe death certificate of the previous owner.<\/p>\n
After the application is submitted, the Land Office will conduct a\nre-measurement and compile a map of the new land parcels according to\nthe splitting plan. Subsequently, new certificates will be issued once\nthe entire administrative and measurement process is completed in\naccordance with applicable regulations. It should be noted that land\nparcel splitting cannot be carried out on all types of land rights.\nBased on Minister of ATR\/Head of BPN Regulation Number 16 of 2021\nArticle 42 paragraph (3), splitting is not permitted for customary\ncommunity land registered under an individual\u2019s name.<\/p>\n
