Adakah berpoligami jadi jenayah di Indonesia di bawah KUHP baharu?

KUHP baharu tidak melarang poligami sebagai suatu bentuk , tetapi Pasal 402 menjenayahkan perkahwinan yang dilangsungkan sedangkan ada penghalang sah. KUHP nasional (UU No. 1 Tahun 2023) berkuat kuasa 2 Januari 2026. Pasal 402 ayat (1): penjara maksimum 4 tahun 6 bulan atau denda kategori IV; ayat (2), jika perkahwinan sedia ada disembunyikan daripada pihak lain: penjara maksimum 6 tahun atau denda kategori IV. Ketua Komisi III DPR menjelaskan pada Januari 2026 bahawa sasarannya ialah, misalnya, mengahwini isteri orang. Sejauh mana perkahwinan kedua tanpa izin Pengadilan Agama dikira "penghalang yang sah" masih dibahaskan dan belum ada amalan pendakwaan yang mantap. Yang pasti: menyembunyikan isteri sedia ada ialah bentuk paling berat. Lihat Indonesia .

Is polygyny a crime in Indonesia under the new KUHP?

The new KUHP does not prohibit polygyny as such, but Article 402 criminalises a marriage conducted while there is a lawful impediment. The national KUHP (UU No. 1 of 2023) comes into force on 2 January 2026. Article 402 paragraph (1): maximum imprisonment of 4 years 6 months or a category IV fine; paragraph (2), if the existing marriage is concealed from the other party: maximum imprisonment of 6 years or a category IV fine. The chair of Commission III of the DPR explained in January 2026 that the target is, for example, marrying another man's wife. How far a second marriage without the permission of the Religious Court counts as a "lawful impediment" is still debated, and there is no settled prosecution practice yet. What is certain: concealing an existing wife is the most serious form. See Indonesia.
