Document background
The Final Certificate is a critical document in Indonesian construction projects, required under Law No. 2 of 2017 on Construction Services and related regulations. It is issued when a construction project has been fully completed, all defects have been remedied, and all contractual obligations have been satisfied. The document serves multiple purposes: it confirms the successful completion of works, establishes the final contract sum, releases parties from further obligations (except where specifically noted), and typically triggers the release of any remaining payments or retention monies. The Final Certificate must comply with Indonesian legal requirements and local building regulations, often requiring approval from relevant authorities. It forms part of the project's permanent records and can be crucial for future reference, warranty claims, or dispute resolution.
