Report on International Data Protection Enforcement Cooperation

2 February 2026

Support Pool of Experts projects

The Report on International Data Protection Enforcement Cooperation focuses on the cooperation between EEA data protection authorities (DPAs) and DPAs in countries or organisations with an EU adequacy decision, while also exploring how insights from other regulatory fields may inspire improvements to strengthen cross-border enforcement cooperation.

The Report analyses the current state of international enforcement cooperation in data protection and assesses whether, and to what extent, useful lessons can be drawn from the related cooperation frameworks in consumer protection and competition law. To this end, the Report reviews both legally binding and “soft law” instruments currently available to DPAs, evaluates their practical use, and identifies the challenges that hinder more robust forms of cross-border cooperation.

The EDPB launched this project in the context of the Support Pool of Experts programme as part of its cooperation with DPAs from countries and organisations with an EU adequacy decision.

Project completed by the external expert Helena Kastlova in September 2025.

Objective

The Report on International Data Protection Enforcement cooperation puts forward a comprehensive analysis on the state of play of international data protection enforcement cooperation, compares it with the cooperation practices among authorities in other regulatory fields and DPAS with a forward-looking set of recommendations for enhancing international enforcement cooperation in data protection.
