# localizationCode

A device localization code that specifies the HID compliant localization code.

```
let localizationCode: HIDDeviceLocalizationCode?
```

## Discussion

The localization code can specify the specific format a device is localized. For example, a Japanese (JIS) keyboard should declare the [`HIDDeviceLocalizationCode.japan`](/documentation/CoreHID/HIDDeviceLocalizationCode/japan) localization code.
