The Parliament of Malaysia passed Malaysia’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) on 2 June 2010. The PDPA sets out a complete cross-sectoral framework to protect the personal data of individuals with respect to commercial transactions. The PDPA applies to any person or data controller (organization) who processes or has control over a data subject’s personal data. The PDPA aims to avoid any misuse of individuals’ personal data.
Malaysia’s Personal Data Protection Act was implemented on November 15, 2013.
In July 2024, the Malaysian Parliament passed the long-awaited Amendment (the 2024 Amendment) to the PDPA, which introduced changes to the existing provisions of the PDPA and added some additional obligations.

Right to be informed: Data controllers must inform data subjects by written notice of any matters relating to the processing information of the data subject.
Right to access: Data subjects have the right to access their data and correct it if found inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, or outdated. Data controllers must acknowledge receipt of a data access request.
Right to correction: Data subjects have the right to rectification of their personal data if it is found inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, or outdated. Data controllers must acknowledge receipt of a data correction request.
Right to opt-out: A data subject can withdraw consent for the processing of his/her personal data at any time by way of written notice.
Right to prevent processing: With written notice, a data subject can withdraw consent for the processing of his/her personal data if it might cause them any damage or distress.
Right to data portability: A data subject can request data controllers to transfer their personal data to another data controller of their choice.
The Personal Data Protection Commissioner is the acting and responsible regulatory authority in Malaysia for implementing and executing PDPA.
The purpose of PDPA is to strengthen consumer confidence in business transactions and e-commerce by seeking user consent to sell their personal data.
Certain classes of data controllers are required to register under the PDPA. Data controllers are also required to display their certificate of registration at a conspicuous place at their principal place of business and a copy of the certificate at each branch, where applicable.
The PDPA has seven data protection principles, including the General Principle, Notice and Choice Principle, Disclosure Principle, Security Principle, Retention Principle, Data Integrity Principle, and Access Principle. Under the 2024 Amendments to the PDPA, the maximum penalty for non-compliance with the principles of the PDPA is MYR 1 million (approx. $212,530) and 3 years imprisonment.
The PDPA does not apply to any personal data processed outside Malaysia unless the data is intended to be further processed in Malaysia.
