Sending to Brazil, answered

Common questions about sender registration, two-way replies, and compliance when launching SMS in Brazil.

Do I need to register a sender before sending SMS to Brazil?

No registration is required for a long code; confirm availability, ownership and destination access before sending. Registration is unavailable for an alphanumeric sender ID, and the submitted sender ID is overwritten.

Can I use an alphanumeric sender ID in Brazil?

You can submit an alphanumeric sender ID, but registration is unavailable and the carrier overwrites it before delivery.

Can I receive replies from Brazil?

Yes, if you send from a long code. Replies are delivered to you as signed webhooks.

Are there quiet hours for SMS in Brazil?

Quiet hours are recorded here. Confirm the applicable sending window for your message purpose and recipient location.
