United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor. The establishment of East Timor into a new state requires territorial boundaries, especially with Indonesia. The boundary between Indonesia and East Timor has not yet been reached. The methods used are normative. Based on UNCLOS 1982 if maritime boundaries enter the sovereign territory of the country, then the principle used is the principle of equidistance. Second, there is no clear authority in the management of Indonesia's borders so the current state of Indonesia's borders, especially in terms of security stability, is not yet conducive. Third, under Article 3 UNCLOS both countries have the right to the width of their territorial sea up to a limit of 12 miles measured from the baseline, if not overlapping with the territorial sea area.
