Number format

How do I write Kuwait numbers for a bulk SMS list?

Write numbers for Kuwait in international format: the calling code +965 first, then the national number. If people in Kuwait dial a domestic trunk prefix such as 0 at the start, leave it out after the calling code. A number written this way looks like +965 5123 4567. Spaces and dashes are fine; the console removes them when it reads your list.

Language

Which alphabet do recipients in Kuwait read?

Most recipients in Kuwait read Arabic and English. Text written in Arabic is sent in UCS-2, so one SMS segment holds 70 characters (67 per part when split), and a 140-character message costs two segments. Messages in English or other plain Latin text fit 160 characters per segment.
