The 10DLC Registration Process

The entire registration process typically takes 14-28 business days; it goes fastest when the business is already following the rules that support a clean and applicable messaging campaign and has the documentation ready for campaign registration. 


Pre-registration checklist


Get ready! Before you begin the campaign registration process, take time to review and gather the required information to ensure a smooth experience. The pre-registration checklist outlines what is acceptable and what is not. Stay informed and ensure compliance by understanding the policies before submitting your registration. Here are some items to consider when registering your brands and campaigns: 

Registration and Verification

10DLC registration is done in steps: First the brand must be registered and achieve "Verified" status before proceeding with the campaign registration. Then, during the campaign registration, the information will be vetted by the CNP and the DCA. Finally, approval must be granted by the DCA before proceeding to the last step, which is Number Assignment.
