Key facts
- Chinese car apps deliver the verification code only to +86 numbers — SMS is never sent to numbers from other countries.
- No Chinese passport required: the number is issued against your international passport, name and surname in Latin letters.
- Issuance takes from 30 minutes to 2 hours after the issuance procedure starts.
- The number works as an eSIM: a separate profile, your main SIM keeps working. No QR code needed — SMS arrive in an app on the phone.
- The number does not work for WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram or Facebook — Chinese numbers are not accepted there.
The Zeekr app links the car to its owner and provides remote control, updates and service functions. During registration it sends the verification code only to Chinese numbers (+86) — numbers from other countries never receive it.
What the +86 number is used for
- Initial app activation after purchase
- Linking the owner account (the master account is registered in China)
- Adding a second driver
- Account recovery if access is lost
- Subscriptions and service features

What KitSim does
- We issue a real Chinese +86 number as an eSIM, usually within one day.
- The owner installs the eSIM on their phone: no need to change the phone, the primary SIM stays active.
- They register or recover the Zeekr app account with that number.
- One year later the number is renewed — we remind in advance.
Support is available in English and Russian; the number is managed and issued to a specific owner.
