deklaranti

Deklaranti is a term used to describe a person who makes a declaration in a formal document or legal proceeding. In English-language contexts the equivalent term is declarant. The word is common in Indonesian legal language, where it denotes the individual whose statements or facts are recorded in affidavits, declarations, or sworn statements.

In practice, a deklaranti provides the information that a document records, such as personal details, events, or facts relevant to the matter at hand. Declara tions may be sworn under oath or affirmed, and they are typically witnessed or notarized to establish authenticity. The deklaranti signs the document, ordinarily in the presence of an authorized official such as a notary public or a court officer.

Responsibilities and implications associated with being a deklaranti include accuracy and honesty, personal knowledge of the stated facts, and the capacity to understand the declaration. False or misleading statements can carry legal consequences, including penalties for perjury, fraud, or other offences, depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of the document.

Deklaranti appear across various contexts, including civil registry acts, immigration or asylum processes, tax or income declarations, and other official records. While the term is rooted in Indonesian usage, it aligns with the broader legal concept of a declarant in many jurisdictions, where the declarant’s statements are foundational to the document’s validity and enforceability.
