Brief about DLT Registration

As per TRAI’s TCCCPR 2018 regulations, all businesses sending SMS must register their entity, sender IDs (headers), and message templates on a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) platform. This ensures compliance and prevents spam, safeguarding your communication with customers.

Steps for DLT Registration

1. Business Entity Registration

Register your business on any DLT platform (Jio, Vodafone, BSNL, Airtel, MTNL, etc.) by submitting the required details and documents. Once approved, you will receive an Entity ID/Registration ID. Add this ID to your bulk SMS platform to ensure compliance with DLT regulations.

2. Sender ID (Header) Registration

There are two types of headers:

• Promotional: 6-digit numeric (for offers, discounts, etc.)
• Transactional/Service: 6-character alphabetical (for OTPs, alerts, etc.)

Ensure the header matches your brand name. If different, provide supporting documents like a trademark certificate or website link.

3. Content Template Registration

Log in to your DLT platform and navigate to Template Registration. Choose the communication type (Promotional, Transactional, Service Implicit, or Service Explicit). Add the message content and submit for approval. Ensure the template includes your brand name in the footer, as per TRAI guidelines.

4. Consent Template Registration (if required)

Register consent templates for promotional messages. Add the brand name and scope of consent before submitting.

5. Adding DLT-approved Templates to Your Bulk SMS Platform

Once your templates are approved, log in to your SMS platform. Navigate to the template management section, enter the DLT Template ID and message content as per the approved format, and submit. Wait for approval before sending messages.

Important Notes

• DLT approval is mandatory; non-registered messages will be blocked.
• Ensure exact template matching between DLT and SMS platforms.
• Approval timelines vary by operator; delays may occur due to high demand.
• For assistance, reach out to your DLT provider or SMS platform support team.
