# 3.4.4. Import a new locale from the localization spreadsheet

To set localized values in the system, the localization spreadsheet first needs to be exported and translated (see [section 3.4.3](/readme/current/deployment-and-setup/3.4-localisation/3.4.3-add-or-edit-a-locale-in-the-exported-spreadsheet.md)). After this is done, the spreadsheet must be reimported.

1. Navigate to the **Settings** page and scroll to the Localization section.\\

2. Click the **Import Localization** button to open the Import modal. The imported file will link back to the right locale(s) through the locale codes listed in the headers of the relevant columns with the translations; the localization spreadsheets only imports the columns with translations that have a matching locale code with what is installed following the steps in [section 3.4.1](/readme/current/deployment-and-setup/3.4-localisation/3.4.1-install-a-new-locale.md)).\\
