Notes
Brunei Darussalam (BN) has specific guidelines for sending SMS messages. Alphanumeric and numeric sender IDs are supported, but generic sender IDs such as INFO, SMS, NOTICE, etc. are not allowed. To send marketing messages, prior consent from the recipients is required. It is important to note that person-to-person (P2P) traffic is prohibited. No content that deals with politics, religion, unsolicited promotion or gambling may be sent. In addition to these guidelines, our Acceptable Use Policy applies. We strive to keep the information updated and correct, but we cannot accept responsibility for changes in legislation.
