The Personal Information Protection Commission (PIPC) has published revised regulations governing its investigation and administrative enforcement procedures. The updated rules, which take effect on September 11, 2026, establish the procedural framework for how PIPC conducts investigations into personal data protection violations and imposes administrative measures on non-compliant organizations. Organizations subject to PIPC oversight must ensure their compliance procedures account for these updated investigation and enforcement rules.

Who is affected

Organizations in South Korea subject to PIPC investigation and enforcement authority; personal data processors and controllers operating in Korea
