Signature Rules

Apply for a signature only when using the Chinese mainland SMS service. The signature must be enclosed in square brackets, for example, [HUAWEI].

Apply for one or more SMS signatures in advance according to service requirements and reserve sufficient time for review. Signatures can be reviewed only on workdays.

Read the following specifications and make sure that your signatures comply with the specifications:

Signature Specifications

Content

  • You are advised to use the full name or abbreviation of your company, website, product, or application of your company as a signature.
  • The signature cannot contain information involving pornography, gambling, drugs, or other contents that violate laws and regulations.

Length

The signature name must contain 2 to 16 characters (only digits and letters are allowed). Signatures containing only digits are not allowed. Each Chinese character, digit, or letter is counted as one character.

Format

  • A signature is case-sensitive. For example, ABC001 and abc001 are different signatures.
  • Enter the signature name when applying for a signature. The system automatically encloses the signature name with square brackets.

Review Rules

  • SMS signatures must be archived by the carrier. Provide the original business license or a copy of the business license with the company seal. The power of attorney is not required if the third-party rights & interests are not involved. If the third party's rights may be violated, the third party's authorization must be obtained. For details, see Third-Party Rights & Interests.
  • The application materials to be provided vary according to the signature contents. For details, see Signature Application Materials.

Third-Party Rights & Interests

Concept

  • If Company A applies for a signature and the owner of the signature is A, the third party's rights and interests are not involved.
  • If Company A applies for a signature for Company B, and the owner of the signature is B, the third party's rights and interests are involved. Company B must give a power of attorney to Company A.

Advantages

The concept of third-party rights & interests is introduced to simplify the signature application process. If third-party rights & interests are not involved, you can directly apply for a signature; you only need to upload the business license of the enterprise or public institution. If third-party rights & interests are involved, you need to upload the power of attorney and business license of the enterprise or public institution.

Example

If Company A applies for a signature for itself due to business requirements, the signature belongs to A. In this case, the original or copy of A's business license (with the company seal) must be uploaded as application materials.

If Company A applies for a signature for Company B, the signature belongs to B. In this case, the original or copy of B's business license (with the company seal) and the power of attorney provided by B to A must be uploaded as application materials.
