The method used in this research is normative legal research using four approaches, namely the statute approach, the historical approach, the comparative approach, and the conceptual approach. This study concludes that state land with forest area status has a special legal position obtained based on the provisions of the law and regulations in the forestry sector, which is applied in the colonial period in the form of Reglement-reglement, Ordonnantie and Verordening, and also law and regulations applied in Independent Indonesia era in the form of Laws, Government Regulations, Presidential Regulations and Ministerial Regulations.
