In a multicultural society like Indonesia, children from interfaith unions face complex legal and social challenges. This study explores the nuances of child registration in Semarang, addressing the legal framework, social dynamics, and implications for children's rights. Beginning with an overview of Indonesia's legal context, the paper emphasizes the importance of civil registration in establishing a child's legal identity and access to rights and services.

The absence of a centralized religious authority in the latter context presents distinctive challenges, emphasizing the need for decentralized and context-specific reform strategies.
