摘要

Indonesian law assures the right of its citizens to access health services for abortion procedures under strict criteria. The enactment of Law No. 1 of 2023 about the Criminal Code (KUHP) changed previous regulations regarding the time the abortion is allowed. Abortion is closely related to ethical and moral considerations. The central ethical and moral debate about abortion, especially in Indonesia, revolves around when a fetus is considered a human being and how this aligns with the Indonesian Medical Code of Ethics (KODEKI). On the other hand, the safety and welfare of pregnant women should also be considered. Therefore, all medical and healthcare professionals must understand all aspects of the ethics and laws regarding abortion that apply in Indonesia.
