Named and Unnamed Agreements

Agreements, often called contracts, in Indonesia can be divided into two types based on their names, namely named agreements (nominate) and unnamed agreements (innominate). Both types of agreements have their own definitions, terms, elements, and legal basis. Lease agreements, which are included in the category of named or nominat agreements, must meet the elements and terms of the agreement in accordance with the provisions of the applicable law in Indonesia.1 Meanwhile, unnamed agreements, which are generally developed in society, are still legally recognized even though there are no specific detailed regulations regarding this matter. These unnamed agreements can also be written or unwritten agreements. The requirements for a valid agreement, both subjective and objective, apply generally to both types of agreements. However, in practice, there are often discrepancies, especially in unnamed agreements which are usually not written. On the other hand, written named agreements are generally in accordance with existing legal provisions or legislation, so that their implementation provides legal certainty. This certainly has its own legal consequences and consequences for the parties involved.
