In September 2022, Indonesia's House of Representatives (DPR) ratified the Personal Data Protection (PDP) bill as law. This law will impact both local and international organisations that process the personal data of Indonesian citizens.
The Indonesian PDP Law will serve as an umbrella regulation to harmonise more than 32 regulations that relate to the protection of personal data. The new law covers the rights of the data subject, the types of personal data, lawful basis for processing personal data, some guidelines for the appointment of a Data Protection Officer, and criminal sanctions for violations.
