Text message marketing compliance rules in Utah

⚠

Mini-TCPA State — UCA § 13-25a (Telephone and Facsimile Solicitation Act)

Utah has enacted a state-level TCPA that goes beyond federal requirements. Federal compliance alone is not enough for SMS Compliance operations here.

Consent Requirements

Consent LevelPrior Express
Checkbox ConsentValid
StatuteUtah Code § 13-25a-103; 47 U.S.C. § 227

Utah has no state-specific SMS telemarketing statute. Federal TCPA governs text messages. The state DNC private right of action ($1,000 per violation) could apply to unsolicited text messages to DNC-listed numbers.
