This study aims to explore the quality of services provided by such office whether it is in line with the people’s expectation and its reality or not. This research uses qualitative approach and it is conducted at four offices of ministry of religious affairs (KUA/Kantor Urusan Agama) in four sub districts including Adiwerna, Lebaksiu, Talang and Dukuhturi. Results of this research depict that the index of people’s expectation toward services offered by those offices are 81,30 which is considered as in a good level.
