Abstract: The Land Deed Official is a public official authorized to create authentic deeds related to legal acts concerning land rights or ownership rights of apartment units. This profession is important because it ensures legal certainty for the public. The Land Deed Official is also responsible for providing the legal competence of the parties involved. In practice, the Land Deed Official often faces challenges, such as when one of the parties cannot be at the office due to detention. This research aims to analyze the validity of deeds signed by a detainee during their detention. The research method used is normative. The study results conclude that a detainee is legally competent and retains the right to perform legal acts. Furthermore, the Land Deed Official can sign the deed outside the office if it complies with the applicable regulations, such as Government Regulation Number 24 of 2016 and Regulation of the Head of the Indonesian National Land Office Number 1 of 2006. Signing a deed by a detainee is valid as long as it is conducted within the Land Deed Official’s jurisdiction and the detainee meets the legal competency requirements.
