Legal requirements for data across borders vary by country and can include: In general, data must be transferred with the consent of the individual, the recipient of the data must ensure the same level of data protection as the transferor, data must only be transferred to countries that offer an adequate level of data protection, if the data involves citizens of another country, the organization must comply with the laws of that country. For example, if the data involves citizens of the European Union, the organization must comply with the General Data Protection Regulation.

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023, cross-border data transfers from India must meet specific legal requirements. First, data can be transferred only to countries not blacklisted by the government. Organizations must conduct adequacy assessments to ensure that the receiving country provides a level of data protection equivalent to India’s standards. Additionally, Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) can be used to enforce data protection obligations during transfers. Explicit consent from data subjects may also be required, especially for sensitive data. Organizations must implement measures to safeguard personal data and ensure compliance with Indian laws.
