Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyse the impact of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and implementation costs concerning municipalities. This regulation enforceable on 25th May 2018 aims primarily to provide control to EU citizens over their personal data, unifying the regulation within all EU members. This regulation aggregates new costs and duties for all subjects gathering personal data. This paper depicts the duties and changes newly commencing and possibilities of their implementation. Changes are demonstrated on an example of one municipality, particular needs of change and total costs of implementation are estimated for this subject. Comparing this subject to others, we can make an assumption of total costs of GDPR implementation in Czech Republic in the field of municipalities.
