[ABSTRAK Tesis ini membahas Surat Keterangan Waris bagi golongan Tionghoa di Indonesia. Surat Keterangan Waris yang dibuat oleh Notaris merupakan akta di bawah tangan yang tidak diatur dalam peraturan perundang-undangan di Indonesia, akan tetapi keterangan ini telah mendapat kepercayaan penuh dari masyarakat, instansi-instansi pemerintah maupun swasta. Notaris sebagai pejabat umum yang menjalankan profesi dalam memberikan jasa hukum kepada masyarakat dipahami sebagai pihak ketiga terpercaya yang dapat memberikan jaminan atas keautentikan informasi yang tertera dalam Surat Keterangan Waris. Hal tersebut memberi dampak bahwa Notaris tidak dapat melepaskan tanggung jawab dalam pembuatannya, karena isi dari Surat Keterangan Waris adalah opini hukum Notaris yang didasarkan pada fakta-fakta hukum yang sebenarnya. Sehingga menarik untuk diteliti mengenai Surat Keterangan Waris yang dibuat berdasarkan pada surat pernyataan yang dilegalisasi oleh Notaris bahwa pewaris telah menikah secara adat/agama dan karenanya ahli waris menurut hukum adalah isteri dan anaknya. Adapun pokok permasalahan dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimanakah kekuatan suatu surat pernyataan yang telah dilegalisasi Notaris sebagai dasar pembuatan Surat Keterangan Waris, serta bagaimanakah pembuatan Surat Keterangan Waris serta pembagian waris bagi Pewaris yang melakukan perkawinan secara adat/agama dan tidak dicatatkan di Kantor Catatan Sipil. Melalui penelitian hukum normatif yang bersifat analitis preskriptif ini, penulis dengan menggunakan data sekunder berusaha mencari cara pembuatan Surat Keterangan Waris serta mencari solusi bagi golongan Tionghoa yang perkawinannya dilakukan secara adat dan tidak pernah dicatatkan di Kantor Catatan Sipil agar mendapatkan perlindungan hukum yang sama sebagaimana layaknya sebuah keluarga menurut hukum keluarga dan hukum waris yang berlaku. Simpulannya adalah surat pernyataan yang telah dilegalisasi oleh Notaris tidak dapat dijadikan dasar pembuatan Surat Keterangan Waris dan ketiadaan penetapan pengadilan mengakibatkan yang berhak sebagai ahli waris adalah saudara-saudara dari Pewaris.
