It depends on the message type and the flow that your counterparty supports. For some messages you will never know, others, such as logon or heartbeat have fixed guaranteed responses using the same message type. Others, such as NOS (D) have a response using an execution report which updates the status of the order. Typical flows can be found on the FIX website and most counterparties’ “rules of engagement” detail their expected flows and will include any confirmation or status update messages they support. Other than these flows there are no simple aknowledgements that messages have been received.
edit: having seen your comment I’ll add that quote requests do not normally send an acknowledgement.
