Number format in Myanmar
Mobile numbers in Myanmar have 8 digits after +95. Locally they are written with a leading 0 (09 212 3456); in the API that 0 is dropped, so the same number goes in the to field as +95 9 212 3456.
Alphabet and segments
Text in Burmese is always Unicode, so a message to Myanmar written in Burmese carries 70 characters in one segment and 67 in each part of a longer one. Codes and alerts written in English or plain Latin letters fit 160 characters, which halves the cost of a long notice.
Time zone and timing
Myanmar keeps UTC+6:30 all year with no clock change, so 09:00 in Yangon is always 02:30 UTC. send_at takes UTC or any ISO 8601 offset, and the console scheduler converts from your own time zone.
Send to Myanmar with one request
The answer comes back at once with the message id, the country the number was matched to (MM) and the price. A delivered or failed event follows on your webhook, and a failed message is refunded.
For a list, send the same text to up to 10,000 numbers with POST /v1/batches, or a personal text per number in messages.
