Compliance Node Overview
The Lao People's Democratic Republic enacted the Law on Electronic Data (Law No. 20/NA, 2017) which contains provisions governing the protection of personal data in electronic form. The law is administered by the Ministry of Science and Technology (MoST) and the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications (MPT). It establishes obligations for electronic data controllers to collect personal data only with the data subject's knowledge and consent, implement security measures to protect electronic data, restrict disclosure of personal data to third parties without consent, and ensure the accuracy of personal data held. Data subjects have the right to access and correct personal data held about them. The law aligns with ASEAN principles on personal data protection given Laos's membership in ASEAN.
