Notary is an authorized official to make authentic deeds. One form of deed made by a Notary is the Corporate Establishment Deed. The corporation consists of limited liability companies, foundations, associations, cooperatives, cooperative partnerships, firm partnerships, and other corporate forms. The main goal of people establishing a corporation is to run a business and seek profits. However, with the development of the times, corporations are widely used by certain elements as a means of committing money laundering and terrorism funding. In this case a new term appears called the beneficial owner. The beneficial owner of a corporation has more power than other corporate organs so that it can control the corporation. With the emergence of the term beneficial owner in the corporation this raises questions about the position of the corporation in a company. Many people who set up fake corporations with funds that they have to avoid taxes, commit money laundering crimes, even to commit acts of terrorism. Seeing this, the Government requires every corporation to reveal the identity of the beneficial owner of every corporation in Indonesia. Notary as the party that plays a role in making the Corporation's Deed of Establishment also has the duty to apply the principle of recognizing service users and benefit owners in establishing a corporation. In the column on the website www.ahu.go.id, Notaries have the obligation to fill in the column of benefit owners in a corporation if there are beneficial owners in the corporation. This was done by a Notary by carrying out the process of identification and verification of the Notary service users. In addition, the Financial Transaction Reporting and Analysis Center (PPATK) also requires Notaries to register applications for the Gathering Report Information Processing System (GRIPS). This GRIPS application can make it easier for Notaries and Land Deed Officials (PPAT) to report to PPATK about suspicious financial transactions that have the potential to cause money laundering and terrorism funding crimes.
