01What is being requested
The document concerns the Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of personal data to third countries under the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), specifically for the relationship between the data exporter (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) and the data importer.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands is considering a (European) request for tender to contract a service provider for Global payroll (management) services. We have previously conducted a market consultation and you might have given your input already. This input brought insights which were included in this document. Since the last consultation much has changed in the area of IT in relation to the payroll (management) services. Therefore we conduct another Market Consultation. Our aim is to publish the request for tender in July 2026.
02Strategic insight
<ul Ensure strict compliance with the duty to follow instructions and the security requirements as described in the clauses. Establish a process for obtaining prior written consent for engaging sub-processors to prevent breach of contract. Ensure that the local legislation in the country of the data importer does not impede the obligations under these clauses, particularly regarding access by government authorities.
