POPI INFORMATION OFFICER REGISTRATION

Businesses can now register their Information Officers online with the Information Regulator. Businesses must do so without delay to avoid any penalties or regulatory action. The Information Officer is usually the CEO or COO of the company and may delegate some functions to Deputy Information Officers, who must also be registered.

Please ensure that information officers are duly appointed and that the necessary information is submitted.

One can also contact the Information regulator on their email address: registration.IR@justice.gov.za .
