National language support for IBM Cloud

IBM Cloud® supports nine national languages other than English. However, depending on the release level of the products included in IBM Cloud, the content that is provided might not be translated.

The IBM Cloud console and the Support Center display content according to your browser's language setting.

The IBM Cloud docs are machine translated. You can switch between languages by using the Language switcher at the beginning of each page. The language that you select persists between sessions. If it's the first time you're viewing the docs in a particular browser, the docs display the content according to your browser's language setting unless the URL includes a parameter setting the language.

The following table lists the supported national languages and language codes for IBM Cloud.

National language support for sales

IBM has a local presence in most countries, with sales and technical resources that speak the local language. The IBM Cloud website does IP detection to designate the website language, and you can also change your business location in the Let's talk button. There, you can find a local phone number and contact information for your country.

The following list displays the website URL and local phone number for a selection of locations that IBM Cloud sales supports across the world.
