Brilio.net - Making a new Family Card (KK) is an important step that must be taken by every Indonesian citizen when there is a change in family data. This process can be done at the local Population and Civil Registration Service (Disdukcapil) office on weekdays. Whether changes due to marriage, birth, or change of domicile, all must be reported so that the Family Card data remains accurate.
Processing a new Family Card at the Disdukcapil usually requires a number of supporting documents. The requirements include a photocopy of the Resident Identity Card (KTP), birth certificate, and marriage certificate for those who are married. Make sure all original documents and photocopies are prepared before visiting the Disdukcapil office to speed up the process.
In addition to coming directly to the Disdukcapil office, several regions have provided online services to make new Family Cards. This is very helpful, especially for residents who have difficulty coming directly due to distance and time constraints. This online service can be accessed through the official website of the relevant regional government, so that the process of making a Family Card is more practical and efficient.

Before taking care of making a new Family Card, you need to prepare several important documents as requirements. These documents must be complete and in accordance with applicable provisions. Documents that are usually required include:
- Photocopy of Resident Identity Card (KTP)
Every family member who is 17 years old or married must include a photocopy of their ID card. Make sure the data on the ID card is in accordance with the latest conditions.
- Photocopy of Birth Certificate
A birth certificate is required for every family member to be included in the new Family Card, including children. This birth certificate ensures that the name, place, and date of birth are recorded correctly.
- Marriage Certificate or Marriage Deed
For newlyweds, a marriage certificate or marriage deed must be included as proof of the legality of the marriage. If you are newly married, this document is important to ensure that your partner's name is added to the Family Card.
- Certificate of Moving (if any)
If you move from another area, you must attach a letter of transfer issued by the Population and Civil Registry Office at your old residence. This letter will be the basis for recording your new address on your Family Card.
2. Visit the Disdukcapil Office

Once the supporting documents are complete, the next step is to visit the Population and Civil Registration Office (Disdukcapil) in the city or district where you live. At the Disdukcapil office, you must fill out the new Family Card creation form that has been provided. The officer will help you if there is any part of the form that you do not understand.
In addition, make sure all the information you fill in is correct and in accordance with the documents you bring. At this stage, Disdukcapil officers will also verify the authenticity of the documents you submit, so make sure everything is in good condition and not damaged.
3. Verification and issuance process
After submitting the documents and filling out the form, the next process is verification by Disdukcapil officers. This verification includes checking the accuracy of the data and the authenticity of the submitted documents.
If all data is declared valid, then a new Family Card will be issued. This issuance process usually takes several days to a week, depending on the policy and the number of applications received by Disdukcapil.
You will be given information about when the new Family Card can be picked up or sent to your address. In some cases, especially in big cities, Disdukcapil also provides a new Family Card delivery service via post to make it easier for residents.

Several local governments have started implementing new online Family Card creation services. This service makes it easier for residents who cannot come directly to the Disdukcapil office. To use this service, you need to visit the official website of the local government or Disdukcapil and follow the steps provided on the site.
Usually, you will be asked to upload the required documents in digital form and fill out the form online. After that, you will receive a notification via email or text message regarding the status of your application. If the application is approved, the new Family Card will be sent to the address you listed or can be picked up directly at the Disdukcapil office according to the instructions given.
5. Cost and production time
Making a new Family Card is usually free of charge. However, it is important to always confirm this at the local Disdukcapil office because policies can vary from region to region. The time needed to make a new Family Card usually ranges from 3 to 7 working days, depending on the number of queues and the Disdukcapil policy in your area.
As a precaution, you should process the creation of a new Family Card well in advance, especially if it is needed for urgent needs such as school registration, credit applications, or other administrative needs.
