China

With population of 1.38 billion people (according to Wikipedia), China is now one of the main targets for messaging industry. Among others, cosmetics shops, plastic surgery clinics, Duty-free stores refer to China as their number 1 target market. 

But, unlike any other country, China has a great number of restrictions for the mobile content (and not only). There are a lot of peculiarities to consider before sending any messages to China.

** All messages sent to China must contain “Footer/Header”.

What is “Footer/Header”?

– For messages sent via A2P, it must be added to clarify the Sender

** Regardless of the nature of the message, its content and footer/header must be compliant with the regulations of SureM
