To ensure compliance with Industry standards, The Campaign Registry (TCR) is now requiring additional details for existing registrations. These changes impact all providers. Mobile Carriers in the US consider all Twilio traffic to be Application-to-Person (A2P). This change will provide better delivery quality and lower filtering risk.

You may have received an email with the following request....

- If you do not have a tax ID, you can also look at verified Toll-Free Messaging.
