What this law does
Draft Law No. 8153 is expected to introduce a more detailed cross border transfer framework modeled on General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Chapter V, formalizing adequacy assessments, standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, and derogations for specific circumstances, in place of the current 2010 law's Convention 108 and adequacy by default treatment, recorded on the sibling instrument ua-zakon-ukrainy-pro-zakhyst-personalnykh-danykh in this file.
The source states this as the reform's expected direction rather than as first reading text already adopted, and gives no article number for it. The draft has passed only a first reading and remained in second reading preparation as of the most recent source located, dated May 2026.
