Thailand postpones Personal Data Protection Act to 2021
The Thailand government has approved a Royal Decree to postpone the enforcement of the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) to next year. As COVID-19 rages through the country, the Government of Thailand has pushed back the PDPA effective date to May 31, 2021.
Previously scheduled to come into force this year, certain data controllers’ compliance with main provisions concerning personal data protection, has been deferred for another year.
