Can people receive domestic short messages abroad?

In foreign countries, you can receive short messages from China, provided that you have international roaming. If you don't open international roaming, the mobile phone card will have no signal after going abroad and you can't receive SMS and phone calls.

Mobile phones with international roaming can be used abroad as well as at home, and can answer calls, make phone calls, receive short messages and send short messages. Generally, it is free to open international roaming to receive short messages, but there is a charge for sending short messages. Different countries have different charging standards, so you can consult the local business hall.

Roaming refers to the function that a mobile communication system can still provide services to mobile stations after leaving its registered service area and moving to another service area. Roaming is a term commonly used by mobile phone users, which means that users of cellular mobile phones can continue to use their mobile phones in other regions or countries when they leave their own regions or countries.

Roaming can only be carried out between domestic cities with compatible network standards and connected networks or between regions or countries that have signed bilateral roaming agreements. To realize roaming function, the user's location should be recorded first, and there should be a set of profit settlement methods between operating companies.
