Perhimpunan Advokat Indonesia (PERADI)

What Perhimpunan Advokat Indonesia (PERADI) does

Perhimpunan Advokat Indonesia (PERADI) is the statutory national professional association for advocates in Indonesia, established and mandated under Undang-Undang No. 18 Tahun 2003 (the Indonesian Advocate Law). The organization serves Indonesian advocates and law graduates by operating the country's mandatory advocate certification pipeline: the PKPA (Pendidikan Khusus Profesi Advokat) specialized education program, the UPA (Ujian Profesi Advokat) professional examination, and the subsequent oath-taking ceremonies conducted across all High Court jurisdictions. PERADI also administers continuing legal education (PBPA), ethics oversight through the Dewan Kehormatan and Komisi Pengawas, pro bono legal aid via its Pusat Bantuan Hukum, and international certification through Certificate of Good Standing (COGS) issuance. Its legitimacy as the sole national advocate organization has been upheld by the Constitutional Court (Decision No. 32/PUU-XIII/2015) and the Administrative Court (251.G.2022.PTUN.JKT).

PERADI operates a hierarchical governance structure led by the Dewan Pimpinan Nasional (DPN) under Chairman Prof. Dr. Otto Hasibuan, with regional execution through 30+ Dewan Pimpinan Cabang (DPC) chapters covering every Indonesian High Court jurisdiction from Banda Aceh to Papua. Core operational infrastructure includes the PERADI Tower national headquarters in Jakarta, a national office automation system, online examination registration and results dissemination, and an Instagram presence (@pkpadpnperadi) for PKPA announcements. Partner universities deliver PKPA programs locally, extending the organization's reach into law faculties nationwide (Universitas Pasundan, Universitas Terbuka, Universitas Muhammadiyah Palembang, Universitas Al Azhar, Unsika Karawang, Sam Ratulangi, etc.).

As a non-profit professional membership organization, PERADI's revenue derives from recurring membership dues, annual data collection fees, PKPA course fees, UPA examination registrations, and oath-taking ceremony administration fees. Specific fee amounts are not publicly disclosed. The organization engages in strategic partnerships with the Mahkamah Konstitusi (election dispute training), BANI (arbitration workshops), Cyber Edu Inkor (legal education), DPP Organda (legal aid), and international bodies including the IBA and the Xiamen Arbitration Commission. Customer base is horizontally distributed across all Indonesian advocates and law graduates, with no meaningful concentration risk.
