## What this country needs

### SMS

- **Your sender** — Your alphanumeric sender is accepted as it is.
- No registration needed — creating the sender is enough.

### RCS

- **What they ask for** — Content in the local language · Authorisation letter
- **Who acts** — You sign the paperwork and return it to us.
- **Have this ready** — Privacy policy and terms available in German; A signed authorisation letter, using the template we send you
- **Without an approved registration** — Nothing is sent to this country until the registration is approved.

Your privacy policy and terms and conditions have to be available **in German**.

The brand completes and signs an **authorisation letter**. We send you the current template once
we have your request; you return it completed and signed and **we attach it to the filing**. You
don't need to send it to any operator.
