Uitvoeringswet Algemene verordening gegevensbescherming

Tier 2 In force

The Dutch GDPR implementing act. Its most distinctive provision restricts processing of the BSN — the national identification number — to bodies with statutory authorisation, which is a genuine constraint rather than a formality: an organisation with a lawful basis under the GDPR may still have no authority to use the BSN at all.
