            SMS Regulations by Country

            Important Standard SMS channels were retired on February 14, 2026. To avoid service interruptions, upgrade your standard SMS channels to enhanced channels now. Enhanced SMS offers many of the standard SMS features you love plus session transfers and AI agent support. See Upgrading from Standard to Enhanced Messaging.

            You can use most existing US or Canadian numbers for long code SMS channels, or you can request a new in-country long code number from Salesforce. Either way, to create your channel, you must file a case with Salesforce Customer Support.

            If you request a new long code phone number for SMS, sometimes you’re required to attach country-specific messaging forms to your case. To view your country’s messaging regulations, see SMS Regulations by Country (English only). Click your country’s name, and then download the forms attached at the end of each article. If you don’t see an attachment, no form is required.
