# What steps are needed to add a Sender ID/Header on a DLT portal?

To add a Sender ID/Header for **DLT SMS**, log into your chosen DLT portal (e.g., Airtel, Jio). Go to the "SMS Headers" section, click to add a new header (e.g., SMSGAT), and specify its content category (e.g., Informational, Promotional). Submit it with required details—approval typically takes 60 minutes, with discrepancies notified within 72 hours. Once approved, link it to your SMSGatewayCenter account under "DLT Templates" for use with our **SMS gateway**. This ensures your sender ID complies with TRAI rules—details at [smsgatewaycenter.com/dlt-sms/](https://www.smsgatewaycenter.com/dlt-sms/).
