Pursuant to Article 16 of the Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data ("Law"), real or legal persons processing personal data must register with the Data Controllers' Registry (tr. VERBIS) before processing personal data.

The Personal Data Protection Board ("Board") evaluated the sector representatives' requests that, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, relevant data controllers were unable to complete the necessary preparations for VERBIS registration and register with VERBIS in a timely manner. Accordingly, the Board extended the deadlines for VERBIS registration requirement.

Pursuant to the Board's decision numbered 2020/482 and dated June 23, 2020, the Board extended the deadlines as below. Relevant announcement is available online here (in Turkish).
