Legal Sanction that may arise due to the use of Building prior to Obtain Certificate of Feasible Function (“SLF”)

Under Article 1 number 16 of Local Regulation of DKI Jakarta Number 7 of 2010 on Building (“LR No. 7/2010”), Certificate of Feasible Function (“SLF”) is a certificate which is granted by Local Government against the building that has been completed and has met the requirement of feasibility function based on examination’s result of building’s feasibility function as a requirement to be utilized.

Under Article 237 paragraph (1) of LR No. 7/2010, any person prior to utilization of building shall have SLF. SLF is granted to building which has been completed, met the requirement of reliability and feasibility function of building, and its use function has to comply with Building Construction License (“IMB”).

Legal sanction that may arise if using the building prior to obtain SLF is regulated in Article 283 paragraph (2) of LR No. 7/2010, as follows:

“Every building owners, building users, service providers of building construction who violate the provisions on Article 13 paragraph (3), Article 15 paragraph (1), Article 124 paragraph (3), Article 183 paragraph (1), Article 186 paragraph (4), Article 188 paragraph (1), Article 191, Article 192, Article 195, Article 231 paragraph (1), Article 237 paragraph (1), and Article 245 paragraph (1) are punished with a maximum confinement of 6 (six) months or a maximum fine of Rp 50,000,000 (fifty million Rupiah).”

In the criminal provision, there is an article which is related to SLF, namely Article 237 paragraph (1). Therefore, it can be concluded that any building owners, building users, service providers of building construction who do not have SLF when utilizing the building, shall be punished with a maximum confinement of 6 (six) months or a maximum fine of Rp 50,000,000 (fifty million Rupiah).
