## What this country needs

### SMS

- **Your sender** — An alphanumeric sender is not accepted on its own here: it has to be registered first.
- Registration required before sending.
- The step-by-step for this country isn't written up yet. We tell you exactly what is needed while reviewing your registration.
- **Without an approved registration** — Messages still go out and are still billed, but delivery is best-effort: the operator may change your sender or filter the message.

### RCS

- **Before you start** — You need a company registered in this country.
- **What they ask for** — Local legal entity
- **Who acts** — We handle it. Nothing for you to do.
- **Have this ready** — A local brand, with traffic originating in the country
- **Without an approved registration** — Nothing is sent to this country until the registration is approved.

Only **local brands with local traffic** can register. It is not possible to file an agent for
a foreign brand, or for traffic originating outside the country.
