Twilio: Can I send an SMS from Twillio number to country which doesn't support it?

I've got the following problem - the Twilio numbers that can be genertated based in my country don't support SMS messaging, which I need. The workaround that I found was that if I generate a Twilio number based in a country which does support SMS messsaging(for example the UK) only then can I send an SMS from my Twilio number to my real phone number. I tried it like that and it works.

I was wondering if that's okay to do and if it will still work if I upgrade my account(currently I'm using a trial account). And will I be able to send SMS messages to any number in my country without having to do any verification like it's needed when I'm using my trial account.

Once you upgrade your account , you will not be required to verify the numbers to call/message them . This is a limitation only on the trial account.

About the coverage of numbers for messaging , you could use UK based numbers and send out sms to all supported destinations. The question on coverage is best addressed here . You can choose the country you want to have number in and then get all required information about the number coverage for messaging .

Hope this is useful.
