Languages and alphabets
Which alphabet will messages to Southern Europe use?
Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Catalan and the Balkan languages use the Latin alphabet, but many of their accented letters, such as á, ó, ã, ç, č and š, are outside GSM-7 and switch a message to Unicode. Greek uses its own alphabet, sent in Unicode at 70 characters per segment, and Serbian and Macedonian are also written in Cyrillic. Italian accents à, è, é, ì, ò and ù are part of GSM-7.
Time zones
When should you send bulk SMS in Southern Europe?
Portugal and Madeira sit at UTC+0, Spain, Italy and the Balkans at UTC+1 and Greece and Cyprus at UTC+2, all with summer time. A send at 11:00 in Rome arrives at 10:00 in Lisbon and 12:00 in Athens.
Sender tip
For tourist audiences in summer, a short English message usually stays inside one GSM-7 segment while reaching visitors from every country.
