Entering the Thai Market? Don't Let the PDPA Slow You Down.
For businesses outside of Thailand, navigating the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) can be a significant hurdle. Are you worried about:
- The legal requirement to appoint a local representative in Thailand?
- Understanding your specific obligations under Thai law?
- Handling data subject requests from individuals in Thailand?
- Communicating with Thailand's Personal Data Protection Committee (PDPC)?
