As a transit country, Indonesia faces serious challenges in dealing with stateless persons detained at Immigration Detention Centers/ Rudenim. This study analyzes the legal framework, implementation contraints, and the effectiveness of Rudenim oversight from a human rights perspective using a normative legal approach. The findings of the study indicate that the absence of specific regulations results in stateless detainees being processed through the general immigration legal framework, which is inherently unable to accommodate the principle of non-refoulement. This leads to prolonged detention without legal certainty and potentially violates fundamental rights guaranteed by international law. This study recommends the implementation of the Statelessness Determination Procedure (SDP) to fill the regulatory gap in the handling of stateless detainees in Indonesia and the strengthening of human rights based oversight mechanisms to ensure a more humane and accountable approach to the treatment of stateless detainees facing prolonged detention.
