    Turkey Messaging Rules, Decoded: KVKK Scope vs GDPR and BTK Sender IDs

    A deep-dive on launching SMS into Turkey on Devotel Orbit: KVKK and the GDPR-tricking scope question (controller obligations, foreign representative, cross-border transfer), BTK's reserved sender prefixes (GOV, BANK, SGK, MEB), strict sender-ID mode's restricted_prefix code, sender registration with KYC documents, Turkish opt-out vocabulary (DUR, İPTAL, ÇIKIŞ), and the data-residency posture for TR records.

    Georgia SMS Sender-ID Whitelisting: Register Your Alphanumeric Sender for Marketing Traffic

    A single-market playbook for Georgia (+995): the country's ComCom regulator sits in the sender-ID whitelisting wave of markets, so unregistered alphanumeric marketing traffic is swapped for a generic numeric ID or filtered outright. How to clear exclusivity, distinctiveness, and the generic-name trap, what documents to file, where the country-rules lookup answers, and how the tenant-owned sender registry tracks approval.

    Sending SMS into both the US and Canada — the two-country A2P playbook

    The US runs long-code A2P on TCR-registered 10DLC with per-carrier approval tracking; Canada runs it on short codes, long codes, and registered alphanumeric sender IDs under carrier self-regulation. A sender-id regime that works in one country silently misconfigures in the other, so cross-border programs need a per-country registration map. This playbook covers the carrier-by-carrier split, registration windows, sender-id posture, and opt-out handling for both.
