Oman’s Personal Data Protection Law (Oman’s PDPL) has been published in the country’s official gazette, and it will come into force by February 9, 2023, one year after its issuance which was February 9, 2022. The law applies to any natural person’s personal data including but not limited to their name, location data, identification number, and health-related information. Oman’s PDPL defines personal data as “data that identifies a natural person or makes him identifiable, directly or indirectly, by reference to one or more identifiers”.
Furthermore, additional regulations regarding the obligation of controllers, external auditors, as well as processors including their roles and functions is expected to be issued in due course.

Oman’s PDPL restricts the processing of personal data of a child without the consent of their guardian unless the processing is in the best interest of the child. However, proper controls and procedures should be in place as and in accordance with the regulation.
The law will be regulated and implemented by the Minister of Transport, Communications and Information Technology (MTCIT) which will act as the regulatory authority.
Similar to most other global data protection regulations, Oman’s PDPL also requires the data controller and processor to create and maintain records of processing activities (RoPA).
PDPL requires data controllers and processors to have the written and exclusive consent of the data subject for processing their PD for marketing and commercial purposes.
PDPL defines a set of pre-defined obligations for data controllers and processors that they must oblige to for PD processing, such as determining the risk that could arise with the processing of PD, establishing controls and procedures for data transfer, etc.
Oman’s PDPL defines varying penalties in accordance with the regulations stated under Article 25 to Article 30, and thus, the penalty may vary from OMR 500 to OMR 100,000.
