Hello, do you refer to transparent data encryption (TDE) or to something else?

Yes and no. TDE is the old kind of encryption now there is this new feature called always encrypted.

SQL 2016 always encrypted is a SQL client side feature (currently only supported by ADO .NET)
As such, it does not affect SQL Server database backup and restore process anyhow.
