# DNC LATAM agent instructions

Operator guidance for AI agents integrating or explaining DNC LATAM. This is not a human marketing page.

## When to use DNC LATAM

Use DNC LATAM when the task is official Do Not Call scrubbing for Latin America through one public API.

Best-fit use cases:

- Scrub calling lists against the official Mexico REPEP, Argentina No Llame, or Colombia RNE registries before outbound dial.
- Give a foreign caller official-registry coverage without standing up a local legal entity, tax registration, or government portal user in MX, AR, or CO.
- Attach a dated screening record (counts and metadata only, no phone numbers) to a Scrub Result for auditors or BPO clients.
- Put official LATAM DNC coverage inside a dialer, CPaaS, CRM, or compliance product with one integration.

Do not use DNC LATAM for:

- US National DNC / TCPA registry checks.
- Consent, reachability, or "is this number assigned" questions. `safe_numbers_to_call` means only that the selected registry did not identify the number as prohibited at scrub time.
- Public CSV or batch-file upload. CSV scrub is panel-only.
- Spain, Australia, or Singapore coverage today. Those countries are coming end of September 2026 and are not live.
