Starting July 20, residents in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been informed that sharing Netflix passwords beyond their homes is no longer permitted, as reported by Khaleej Times.

As part of a larger effort to tackle password sharing, Netflix has implemented a new regulation prohibiting users in the UAE from sharing their passwords beyond their homes. A Netflix customer service representative has verified the implementation of this policy, as reported by the Khaleej Times. The rule took effect on July 20.

As per the Netflix representative, the new rules allow only individuals residing in the same home to share passwords and access the same Netflix account. Sharing passwords beyond the household is no longer permitted.

In order to enforce these rules, Netflix will monitor the WiFi networks and IP addresses of devices connected to each account.

Netflix has implemented the same policy in India, where the company has started reaching out to customers who share their accounts outside of their households.

Before implementing these restrictions in the UAE and India, Netflix had already implemented similar measures in more than 100 countries, including prominent markets like the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia, Singapore, Mexico, and Brazil, as reported by Mashable.
