The results of this study state that the law of marriage between different nationalities in the perspective of Indonesian civil law and Islamic law raises problems with the law of marriage itself as well as the legal status, civil rights and citizenship rights of children. In the perspective of Indonesian civil law and Islamic law, the law of marriage of different nationalities is a valid marriage and the legal status of the child is a legitimate child, the civil rights of children from marriages of different nationalities are the same as children in general and the legal status of the child's citizenship as an Indonesian citizen follows the citizenship of the father or mother who is an Indonesian citizen and can also have dual citizenship until he is 18 years old or married, after which the child must declare choosing one of his citizenship.
