Amendments to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) were recently approved by the KSA Council of Ministers. Constituting the country’s first comprehensive national data protection legislation, the PDPL becomes effective in September 2023. As the effective date approaches, businesses required to comply with the new PDPL should start examining their data processing activities, including any cross-border data transfers, to ensure timely compliance with the PDPL.
