Balikpapan is situated near the administrative regions of Indonesia's new capital, specifically North Penajam Paser and Kutai Kartanegara, which has significant implications, particularly in the land sector. This situation has led to an influx of migrants from outside the island of Kalimantan, many of whom choose to settle in Balikpapan City by purchasing land or housing. Consequently, there is an anticipated increase in land registration administration activities. In response, the Balikpapan City government has initiated efforts to enhance land administration through the procurement of a State Land Opening Permit (IMTN). According to Balikpapan City Regional Regulation Number 1 of 2014 regarding Permits for Opening State Land, a Certificate of Permit to Open State Land cannot be granted if there are objections from third parties, which results in diminished protection for the land rights previously held by the community. The objective of the IMTN procurement is to streamline land administration processes in Balikpapan City; however, the actual execution of these activities remains inefficient due to various challenges. This study employs a normative-empirical research methodology, utilizing library data sources alongside interviews and observational activities. The purpose of this journal is to identify the regulations that can enhance the land registration system related to IMTN procurement in Balikpapan and to examine the implementation of land registration following the introduction of the IMTN procurement policy.
