Document background
The Degree Completion Certificate (Surat Keterangan Lulus) is a crucial document in the Indonesian education system, required by Law No. 12 of 2012 on Higher Education and subsequent regulations. This certificate is typically issued immediately upon completion of all degree requirements, often serving as an interim document before the final degree certificate is prepared. It provides official verification of graduation and can be used for job applications, further education, or professional registration purposes. The document must conform to strict regulatory requirements set by the Indonesian Ministry of Education, including specific content, format, and authentication elements. It serves as a legally valid proof of degree completion and is widely recognized by employers, educational institutions, and government agencies within Indonesia and, when properly authenticated, internationally.
