THE RIGHT TO PERSONAL DATA OF CHILDREN WITH DUAL CITIZENSHIP AS LEGAL SUBJECT

The development of information technology is one of the reasons for the occurrence of mixed marriages in Indonesia. With the advancement of this technology, there are no longer societal boundaries for establishing relationships with anyone in all countries. Given the increasing number of mixed marriages occurring in Indonesia today, legal protection for these mixed marriages should be adequately accommodated within the legislation in Indonesia. The issues examined in this writing are the citizenship status of children in mixed marriages and the civil rights of children with dual citizenship concerning the personal status of children as legal subjects. This research employs a normative legal research method with a legislative and library approach. In determining citizenship based on the aspect of birth, two principles are recognized, namely the principle of ius soli and ius sanguinis. In addition to the aspect of birth, the determination of citizenship can also be based on the aspect of marriage, which includes the principle of legal unity and the principle of equality of degree. The civil rights of children with dual citizenship regarding the personal status of the child as a legal subject consist of two rights: the child's rights in the field of marriage law and the rights of children with dual citizenship as heirs. The regulation of the legal status of children resulting from mixed marriages in the new Citizenship Law, namely Law No. 12 of 2006 concerning Citizenship, provides positive enlightenment, especially in the relationship between the child and the mother, as the new law allows for limited dual citizenship for children resulting from mixed marriages.
