PDPC Expands Data Protection Services to Ubon Ratchathani
Thailand's Personal Data Protection Committee has opened a new regional center in Ubon Ratchathani to improve public access to data rights and security resources.
According to a report by Thai Post on August 18, 2026, the Office of the Personal Data Protection Committee (PDPC) has officially expanded its operations by establishing a new PDPA Center in Ubon Ratchathani province. This initiative is designed to provide local residents and businesses with more accessible channels to exercise their personal data rights and seek assistance regarding data privacy concerns.
For residents and long-term visitors in the northeastern region, this expansion may simplify the process of reporting data breaches or seeking guidance on how personal information is handled by organizations. By decentralizing these services, the PDPC aims to strengthen the national framework for data protection and improve responsiveness to digital threats at a local level.
While the center is now operational, the full scope of its administrative capacity and the specific range of services available to non-Thai speakers remain to be confirmed. Those interested in utilizing these resources are encouraged to monitor official PDPC announcements for updates on service hours and the availability of multilingual support for foreign nationals residing in the area.
