# Language localization

> Learn about language localization options

Language localization allows developers to adapt IDMe's authentication and verification experience to different languages and cultural preferences
using standard localization practices. This includes translating interface elements, copy, and user guidance to support a global user base.

Implementing localization ensures users can complete verification in their preferred language. Developers can set the appropriate language
programmatically to create a seamless, personalized experience.

> **Note**

> Language availability may vary depending on the partner, service, or online tool being accessed through IDMe

Users can select their preferred language at the bottom of the authentication or verification screen.

## Best practices

By passing a locale in your authorization endpoint or SAML AuthnRequest, you can automatically direct users to the appropriate language during IDMe
authentication and verification. For example, if a user has selected Spanish or an *es* locale in your application, you can include that locale to
prompt the experience in Spanish.
