Abstract

The increasing number of asylum seekers and refugees to Indonesian territory causes social disturbances, political security, and order in society. Their presence can be exploited by human smuggling networks, human trafficking, drug trafficking, and international terrorist networks. This can have an impact and various problems in Indonesia, primarily surveillance. However, Immigration Supervision according to Law Number 6 of 2011 concerning Immigration does not regulate the authority of Immigration in supervising the entry and exit of refugees. For this reason, this paper discusses the Reconstruction of Immigration Supervision Arrangements for Refugees with the main question, namely, how is the mechanism for the immigration control function of refugees in Indonesia’s status as a transit country. To answer this problem, the researcher uses normative research methods. The study results indicate that there are laws and regulations by the agreement of transit countries. It can be seen how far Indonesia can participate in the refugee problem. Furthermore, related to the structure of involvement in the supervision of refugees, it must involve the Directorate General of Immigration of the Republic of Indonesia, the Supervision and Action section in maintaining the territorial sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia, and the supervisory function within the scope of Human Rights and Sovereignty.
