# Portal translation

You can create localized variations of your Sitecore Content Hub solution by [adding portal languages](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/manage-portal-languages.html "Manage portal languages"). Your Content Hub solution includes one or more portal languages as standard. You can add more languages, and customize languages as required. After adding a language, you must populate it with translations of the various entities within Content Hub, using one of the following methods:

- [Individually translating](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/add-individual-translations.html "Add individual translations") page entities.
- [Importing a template](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/import-translations.html "Import translations") containing translations for all of the Content Hub page entities.

> [!note]
> A Japanese language pack is [available for download](https://mss-p-003-delivery.stylelabs.cloud/api/public/content/8d528f706dc34c61ba098d209c280bd5?v=72054808). To include this in your Content Hub solution, first [add Japanese as a portal language](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/manage-portal-languages.html "Manage portal languages"), and then [import the downloaded language pack](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/import-translations.html "Import translations"). Then, you can log in directly to your translated environment by adding the standardized language code to your instance address, for example `http://<hostname>/ja-JP`.

> [!important]
> For performance reasons, we recommend that you remove unused portal languages.
