Abstract

As an archipelagic country, Indonesia has recognized the 1982 UNCLOS. Indonesia has sovereign rights in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). In the Indonesian Exclusive Economic Zone (Zona Ekonomi Eksklusif Indonesia/ZEEI), in the North Natuna Sea, Vietnamese fishing vessels often engage in illegal fishing. This study aims to examine the efforts that the government has made in Indonesia in overcoming cases of overlapping areas in the EEZ and to analyze the basis for law enforcement of the Indonesian EEZ in the North Sea of the Natuna islands. The legal research method used is normative juridical, with data collection using secondary data and analyzing data qualitatively. The results showed that based on UNCLOS 1982, disputes in the overlapping zone in the EEZ should be resolved by an agreement to determine the boundaries of the EEZ, and the state party to the dispute can hold a provisional arrangement to minimize disputes in North Natuna Sea area.
