Telesign is currently unable to ensure that messages sent to mainland China are reliably delivered because of restrictions around content, encoding, signatures, and use case. These restrictions have resulted in the blocking of seemingly legitimate and registered customer traffic. Due to this, Telesign is currently able to support China Signature/Short Code registration only for local companies and messages sent through Telesign would be delivered on a best-effort basis with limited support only.
The signature/short code registration process for local companies or those with a local presence typically takes 3-4 weeks.

Key Updates: • New Requirement for OTP SMS: All OTP (One-Time Password) SMS messages must now include the brand/service/program/community name within the message content. At this point, this regulation applies only to OTP (One-time passcode) messages and does not extend to other types of content such as ARN (Alerts, Reminders, Notifications) or MKT (Marketing). • Applicable to All Traffic: This regulation applies to both local and international traffic as well as Sender IDs. • Non-Compliance Impact: Non-compliant traffic will result in Sender ID blockage. To restore service, the Sender ID must be re-registered. Currently, no Sender ID blockages have been reported at Telesign. • Effective Date: This regulation is now in effect as per the operator’s announcement.
What You Need to Do: • Review and Update OTP (One-Time Password) Message Content: Please ensure that your OTP messages include the required brand/service/program/community name to comply with the new regulation. • If You Encounter Delivery Issues: If you notice that your Sender ID is experiencing delivery issues for OTP messages in Indonesia, please contact Telesign Support immediately. Our team will investigate the issue, and if it’s related to this regulatory update, please be aware that we may need to re-register your Sender ID with the updated brand name content. o Note: Registration in Indonesia can take approximately 3-4 weeks, so your patience is appreciated during this process
Best Practice Recommendation: To comply with the new regulation and avoid Sender ID blockage, we recommend that you include your brand name at the start of every OTP message. This means your OTP message should begin with your company's name followed by the actual OTP code. For example, if your company is called "ABC Services," your OTP message should look like this: ABC Services: Your OTP is 123456. This structure helps ensure that your message complies with the operator's requirements by clearly identifying the brand at the beginning of the message.
Thank you for your cooperation. For any questions, please feel free to contact support@telesign.com.
Starting October 17, 2024, The Campaign Registry (TCR) is launching a new brand identity verification process called Authentication+ to prevent fraud like impersonation, smishing, and spoofing. This will apply first to all brands with a Public Profit entity type. The process includes Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) as part of the brand registration. Future updates will expand support for additional entity types, and it will also lay the groundwork for RCS verification.
What You Need to Know: Public Profit brands must complete a new 2FA step during registration starting October 17, 2024. A 2FA email will be sent to the "Brand Contact Email" with a link and PIN code. The brand contact must provide their first name, last name, job title, and the PIN from the email to complete the verification. Once verified, the brand will be marked as VERIFIED and can create 10DLC campaigns.
Important Deadlines: If the 2FA email link is not used within 7 days, you can request a new email. The verification must be completed within 30 days or the brand will become "unverified," requiring a new registration. Existing Public Profit brands must update their brand contact email and complete the 2FA process by October 17, 2024, to avoid losing the ability to register new campaigns. Current active campaigns won't be affected immediately, but a future deadline will be announced for compliance.
Make sure to complete the verification by the October 17 deadline to avoid any disruptions

Shared Sender IDs are no longer permitted in Singapore.
What Does This Mean?
*Telesign's Role: As a participating aggregator with Singapore's IMDA (Infocomm Media Development Authority), Telesign is authorized to provide the generic shared Sender ID "Likely-SCAM" for SMS traffic directed to Singapore users. No other shared generic Sender IDs are permitted.
*Impact on Unregistered Sender IDs: Telesign does not expect delivery errors, but any unregistered Sender IDs will automatically be replaced with "Likely-SCAM" (For more details on this regulation, visit this Status Page: https://status.telesign.com/incidents/n6z5wkq0xpm5)
*Action Steps:
Register Your Sender ID: We strongly recommend registering your Sender ID with IMDA to avoid your messages being labeled as "Likely-SCAM". --- Organizations can register their Sender IDs through the SSIR portal (https://smsregistry.sg/web/login). --- Visit the SSIR website (https://www.sgnic.sg/smsregistry/overview); FAQ page (https://www.sgnic.sg/faq/sms-sender-id-registry); Rules of Registration (https://www.sgnic.sg/smsregistry/rules-of-registration) for more information. --- Check your Sender ID registration status via the SSIR portal or through your SSIR admin account holder.
Notify Telesign: Once your Sender ID registration is complete, notify Telesign to adjust your Sender ID settings and ensure your messages are not flagged as "Likely-SCAM." --- Submit a request through our client portal at Telesign Login (https://my.telesign.com/login) or Telesign Signup (https://portal.telesign.com/signup). --- For additional help, review the Telesign Portal User Guide (https://support.telesign.com/s/article/Telesign-Portal-User-Guide).

📢 Important Update: New Regulatory Direction for India LOCAL Traffic as issued by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI)
We would like to inform you about the latest TRAI directive dated 20th August 2024 on CTA (Call To Action) whitelisting (URL/OTT URL/APK/Callback number), aimed at preventing the misuse of Headers and Content Templates.
The TRAI rule will impact only the local traffic of India to India and for the Indian Brands who are sending the domestic traffic.
The Brand owners (Local Entities) are required to complete the URL whitelisting procedure through the DLT portal if their template contents (message text) contain any URLs, OTT links, APKS or callback numbers, regardless of whether they are static or dynamic.
For your convenience, the entire clause from the Direction is provided below:
Now, therefore, on holistic review of the implementation related issues raised by the Access Providers, the Authority, in exercise of the powers conferred upon it under section 13, read with sub-clauses (i) and (v) of clause (b) of sub-section (1) of section 11, of the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India Act, 1997 (24 of 1997) and the provisions of the Telecom Commercial Communications Customer Preference Regulations, 2018 (6 of 2018) and in partial modification of Direction No. D-27/1/(2)/2024-Q0S (E-13563) dated the 20th August 2024, hereby directs all the Access Providers to ensure that the traffic containing URLs/ APKS/ OTT links, which are not whitelisted, is not permitted with effect from the 1* October, 2024; 7.
(c) as far as the implementation of call back numbers is concerned, it requires further deliberation among Access Providers;
- The revised timelines for implementation of call back numbers shall be fixed separately;
Additionally, please be informed that the URLs/OTT URLs/APK/Callback whitelisting capabilities have been recently fully developed and are operational on all DLT portals. Operators are also routinely communicating this information to all of their DLT registered entities.
To ensure compliance, kindly verify and whitelist all your message templates containing URLs/OTT URLs/APK/Callback numbers on the DLT portal.
In an effort to streamline the process, we have included the CTA Whitelisting User Manual and an FAQ document for various operators.
Further important clarification on CTA Whitelisting given by the Operators: • Whitelist all your URLs/APK files/OTT links/Callback Numbers that will be sent as part of the variable or static in the actual SMS. • You can whitelist either the complete URL or a dynamic URL up to the domain name. • For URLs with both static and dynamic parts, register the static part of the URL. For Long / Static URL: While scrubbing the message, TSPs will ensure full match with the long/ static URLs whitelisted. No redirection is permitted from these long URLs. For Long with Dynamic URL: No redirection is permitted. The Dynamic URL must end with query parameter (?). Messages with dynamic path will NOT be allowed, unless they end in query parameter (?). Whitelist Short URL – If a PE intends to use URL shortening in their message content, then they must associate an Active Header with domain of URL Shortening service provider and whitelist the same. e.g https://t.jio/JIODLT where JIODLT is a registered header of the PE https://bit.ly/ABCDBK/ where ABCDBK is a registered header of the PE Similar rules are applicable for Social Media links (e.g. wa.me, fb.me, ig.me, etc.) Whitelisting of URL should begin with only and only http or https (for Static and Dynamic) and shorten URL should begin with only http or https. During submission, only https or https will be acceptable. Whitelist Short Codes – We have Introduced the option for whitelisting “Short Code” under “Number” -> "Toll-Free" e.g. – 1909, 100, 121 Short Codes will be allowed ranging from 3 to 6 digits
Please note that CTA whitelisting is mandatory; failure to whitelist any URLs whether in variable or static content registered in your templates will result in blocked messages to your customers starting October 1, 2024.

Dear Customers and Partners,
We are experiencing instability on our platform with Phone ID Contact Addon, which could cause some delays.
Our team is investigating the issue and we will make sure to keep you updated as soon as we have preliminary findings.
If you have any questions, please contact us at support@telesign.com.
Due to recent changes in Chinese Telecom regulations, signature registrations will now only be supported for companies based in China. As a result, all non-local registered dedicated signatures will be replaced by the generic signature 【优速通】, effective immediately for China Mobile users, which represents approximately 58% of the market. We anticipate that this change may soon extend to all operating networks with little or no prior notice. While your service will continue to function as usual, the only change will be the use of the signature 【优速通】in place of your previously registered signature. For further details, please refer to the official Telecom documentation here: https://www.miit.gov.cn/zwgk/zcwj/wjfb/txy/art/2020/art_fbb560830ecd4f3eb983a844d31230a6.html.
We do not expect any negative impact on the delivery of previously registered dedicated codes, and no changes to these codes are anticipated. However, if you are using our Telesign "shared" routes (non-registered traffic), please note the following potential impacts:
- Content containing URLs may experience delivery issues. To mitigate this, Telesign is finalizing a standard signature and code for use via our shared routes:
- Signature: 【通乐信】
- Code: 7654321
If your company is based in China and you wish to retain your previously registered signature, please contact our support team at Support@telesign.com with the following information:
- Previously registered signature
- Chinese company name
- Business Certificate
- Unified credit code of the company
- Contact Name
- Contact ID number
Please note that processing may take 1-3 weeks.
For those wishing to register for a new dedicated code in China, please follow our detailed instructions here: https://support.telesign.com/s/article/How-do-I-register-for-a-Sender-ID.
Sender ID registration is now in place for the Cambodia - MetFone (456/08) network.
Details:
- One-time Setup Fee:
- Main provider: $20 per Sender ID
- To register with all providers: $40 per Sender ID
- No monthly fees
Required Information for Registration:
- Sender ID
- Company name
- Company website

Note: Generic senders are supported. If you wish to register new Sender IDs, please submit a request.
Thank you for your cooperation with this new requirement.

Telesign system Regulatory Updates
Key Updates: • New Requirement for OTP SMS: All OTP (One-Time Password) SMS messages must now include the brand/service/program/community name within the message content. At this point, this regulation applies only to OTP (One-time passcode) messages and does not extend to other types of content such as ARN (Alerts, Reminders, Notifications) or MKT (Marketing). • Applicable to All Traffic: This regulation applies to both local and international traffic as well as Sender IDs. • Non-Compliance Impact: Non-compliant traffic will result in Sender ID blockage. To restore service, the Sender ID must be re-registered. Currently, no Sender ID blockages have been reported at Telesign. • Effective Date: This regulation is now in effect as per the operator’s announcement.
What You Need to Do: • Review and Update OTP (One-Time Password) Message Content: Please ensure that your OTP messages include the required brand/service/program/community name to comply with the new regulation. • If You Encounter Delivery Issues: If you notice that your Sender ID is experiencing delivery issues for OTP messages in Indonesia, please contact Telesign Support immediately. Our team will investigate the issue, and if it’s related to this regulatory update, please be aware that we may need to re-register your Sender ID with the updated brand name content. o Note: Registration in Indonesia can take approximately 3-4 weeks, so your patience is appreciated during this process
Best Practice Recommendation: To comply with the new regulation and avoid Sender ID blockage, we recommend that you include your brand name at the start of every OTP message. This means your OTP message should begin with your company's name followed by the actual OTP code. For example, if your company is called "ABC Services," your OTP message should look like this: ABC Services: Your OTP is 123456. This structure helps ensure that your message complies with the operator's requirements by clearly identifying the brand at the beginning of the message.
Thank you for your cooperation. For any questions, please feel free to contact support@telesign.com.

Telesign is currently unable to ensure that messages sent to mainland China are reliably delivered because of restrictions around content, encoding, signatures, and use case. These restrictions have resulted in the blocking of seemingly legitimate and registered customer traffic. Due to this, Telesign is currently able to support China Signature/Short Code registration only for local companies and messages sent through Telesign would be delivered on a best-effort basis with limited support only.
The signature/short code registration process for local companies or those with a local presence typically takes 3-4 weeks.

- Main provider: $20 per Sender ID
- To register with all providers: $40 per Sender ID
- No monthly fees

Due to recent changes in Chinese Telecom regulations, signature registrations will now only be supported for companies based in China. As a result, all non-local registered dedicated signatures will be replaced by the generic signature 【优速通】, effective immediately for China Mobile users, which represents approximately 58% of the market. We anticipate that this change may soon extend to all operating networks with little or no prior notice. While your service will continue to function as usual, the only change will be the use of the signature 【优速通】in place of your previously registered signature. For further details, please refer to the official Telecom documentation here: https://www.miit.gov.cn/zwgk/zcwj/wjfb/txy/art/2020/art_fbb560830ecd4f3eb983a844d31230a6.html.
We do not expect any negative impact on the delivery of previously registered dedicated codes, and no changes to these codes are anticipated. However, if you are using our Telesign "shared" routes (non-registered traffic), please note the following potential impacts:
- Content containing URLs may experience delivery issues. To mitigate this, Telesign is finalizing a standard signature and code for use via our shared routes:
- Signature: 【通乐信】
- Code: 7654321
If your company is based in China and you wish to retain your previously registered signature, please contact our support team at Support@telesign.com with the following information:
- Previously registered signature
- Chinese company name
- Business Certificate
- Unified credit code of the company
- Contact Name
- Contact ID number
Please note that processing may take 1-3 weeks.
For those wishing to register for a new dedicated code in China, please follow our detailed instructions here: https://support.telesign.com/s/article/How-do-I-register-for-a-Sender-ID.
Details: URL whitelisting is now mandatory for Viettel operator in Vietnam. At this time, there are no delivery issues related to URL blocking.
URL Whitelisting Requirements:
- Sender ID
- Message content
- Exact URL link (please indicate if the URL is dynamic and include the domain used in URLs, e.g., https://abc.abc/...)
To comply with new regulations, please ensure that your URL is registered along with your Sender ID and message templates when submitting them for Vietnam. Messages containing unregistered URLs will not be delivered to Viettel subscribers starting in September.

📢 Important Update: New Regulatory Direction for India LOCAL Traffic as issued by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI)
We would like to inform you about the latest TRAI directive dated 20th August 2024 on CTA (Call To Action) whitelisting (URL/OTT URL/APK/Callback number), aimed at preventing the misuse of Headers and Content Templates.
The TRAI rule will impact only the local traffic of India to India and for the Indian Brands who are sending the domestic traffic.
The Brand owners (Local Entities) are required to complete the URL whitelisting procedure through the DLT portal if their template contents (message text) contain any URLs, OTT links, APKS or callback numbers, regardless of whether they are static or dynamic.
For your convenience, the entire clause from the Direction is provided below:
Now, therefore, on holistic review of the implementation related issues raised by the Access Providers, the Authority, in exercise of the powers conferred upon it under section 13, read with sub-clauses (i) and (v) of clause (b) of sub-section (1) of section 11, of the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India Act, 1997 (24 of 1997) and the provisions of the Telecom Commercial Communications Customer Preference Regulations, 2018 (6 of 2018) and in partial modification of Direction No. D-27/1/(2)/2024-Q0S (E-13563) dated the 20th August 2024, hereby directs all the Access Providers to ensure that the traffic containing URLs/ APKS/ OTT links, which are not whitelisted, is not permitted with effect from the 1* October, 2024; 7.
(c) as far as the implementation of call back numbers is concerned, it requires further deliberation among Access Providers;
- The revised timelines for implementation of call back numbers shall be fixed separately;
Additionally, please be informed that the URLs/OTT URLs/APK/Callback whitelisting capabilities have been recently fully developed and are operational on all DLT portals. Operators are also routinely communicating this information to all of their DLT registered entities.
To ensure compliance, kindly verify and whitelist all your message templates containing URLs/OTT URLs/APK/Callback numbers on the DLT portal.
In an effort to streamline the process, we have included the CTA Whitelisting User Manual and an FAQ document for various operators.
Further important clarification on CTA Whitelisting given by the Operators: • Whitelist all your URLs/APK files/OTT links/Callback Numbers that will be sent as part of the variable or static in the actual SMS. • You can whitelist either the complete URL or a dynamic URL up to the domain name. • For URLs with both static and dynamic parts, register the static part of the URL. For Long / Static URL: While scrubbing the message, TSPs will ensure full match with the long/ static URLs whitelisted. No redirection is permitted from these long URLs. For Long with Dynamic URL: No redirection is permitted. The Dynamic URL must end with query parameter (?). Messages with dynamic path will NOT be allowed, unless they end in query parameter (?). Whitelist Short URL – If a PE intends to use URL shortening in their message content, then they must associate an Active Header with domain of URL Shortening service provider and whitelist the same. e.g https://t.jio/JIODLT where JIODLT is a registered header of the PE https://bit.ly/ABCDBK/ where ABCDBK is a registered header of the PE Similar rules are applicable for Social Media links (e.g. wa.me, fb.me, ig.me, etc.) Whitelisting of URL should begin with only and only http or https (for Static and Dynamic) and shorten URL should begin with only http or https. During submission, only https or https will be acceptable. Whitelist Short Codes – We have Introduced the option for whitelisting “Short Code” under “Number” -> "Toll-Free" e.g. – 1909, 100, 121 Short Codes will be allowed ranging from 3 to 6 digits
Please note that CTA whitelisting is mandatory; failure to whitelist any URLs whether in variable or static content registered in your templates will result in blocked messages to your customers starting October 1, 2024.

Starting October 17, 2024, The Campaign Registry (TCR) is launching a new brand identity verification process called Authentication+ to prevent fraud like impersonation, smishing, and spoofing. This will apply first to all brands with a Public Profit entity type. The process includes Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) as part of the brand registration. Future updates will expand support for additional entity types, and it will also lay the groundwork for RCS verification.
What You Need to Know: Public Profit brands must complete a new 2FA step during registration starting October 17, 2024. A 2FA email will be sent to the "Brand Contact Email" with a link and PIN code. The brand contact must provide their first name, last name, job title, and the PIN from the email to complete the verification. Once verified, the brand will be marked as VERIFIED and can create 10DLC campaigns.
Important Deadlines: If the 2FA email link is not used within 7 days, you can request a new email. The verification must be completed within 30 days or the brand will become "unverified," requiring a new registration. Existing Public Profit brands must update their brand contact email and complete the 2FA process by October 17, 2024, to avoid losing the ability to register new campaigns. Current active campaigns won't be affected immediately, but a future deadline will be announced for compliance.
Make sure to complete the verification by the October 17 deadline to avoid any disruptions
