Order a Chinese +86 number as an eSIM from esender.su. Nothing to install — no QR code: the card stays on our side, and SMS from China arrive in an app on your phone. Use the +86 number for Li Auto app registration. From 3,500 RUB (~$40) for issuance + 1 year service.

Question 2

Why does my Chinese car app not receive SMS verification codes abroad?

Accepted Answer

Chinese mobile operators (China Mobile, China Unicom) block authentication SMS to international networks due to anti-spam regulations. VPN does not help because SMS is sent via cellular network routing, not IP. A Chinese eSIM (+86) solves this by receiving SMS directly on Chinese networks.
