The prevalence of deed forgery practices to benefit one party at the expense of another has been observed frequently. Consequently, the aggrieved party needs to pursue civil legal remedies to seek compensation.

The objective of this research is to discuss civil legal remedies for deed forgery based on the verdict in Case Number 55/Pdt.G/2021/Pn.Kpn from the Kepanjen District Court, East Java, Indonesia, and compare them with other relevant laws from other ASEAN countries (i.e., Malaysia, Philippines, Brunei Darussalam, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Myanmar).
