Cross-Border Data Transfer Advisory

NDPA Sections 43–44 · GAID · CDPSE
The Problem SAC Solves

Multinationals and organizations using international cloud services, offshore payroll, or global HR systems are transferring personal data internationally without confirming NDPA lawfulness. The NDPC has identified cross-border transfer compliance as a 2026 enforcement focus.

01

What Regulators Expect

  • Documented lawful basis for each international data transfer (NDPA Sections 43–44)
  • Transfer Impact Assessment for non-adequate jurisdictions
  • Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent transfer mechanism
  • Sub-processor transfer chain documentation
  • Evidence of supplementary measures where required
  • Board awareness of international transfer exposure
02

SAC Intervention

SAC maps every international data transfer, assesses the applicable lawfulness basis under NDPA Sections 43–44, implements the required transfer mechanisms, and produces the Transfer Impact Assessments required to evidence lawfulness for NDPC inspection.
