# Fiscal localizations

Fiscal localizations are country-specific modules that allow you to be compliant with a country's
fiscal requirements. Most of these modules are related to the {ref}`Accounting
<fiscal_localizations/accounting>` or {ref}`Payroll <fiscal_localizations/payroll>` app, but they
can also be necessary for other apps such as Point of Sale, eCommerce, etc., depending on a
country's fiscal requirements.

## Configuration

Odoo should automatically install the required fiscal localization modules based on the company's
country when the related app is installed. Refer to the {ref}`list of countries
<fiscal_localizations/countries-list>` to view the currently supported countries and access their
specific documentation. 

:::{note}
Each company in a multi-company environment can use different fiscal localization modules.

### Accounting

Verify the right package of modules is installed by going to {menuselection}`Accounting -->
Configuration --> Settings` and checking the {guilabel}`Package` field under the {guilabel}`Fiscal
Localization` section. Select another one if necessary.

:::{warning}
Selecting another package is only possible if no entry has been posted.
:::

These packages require fine-tuning the chart of accounts, activating the taxes to be used,
configuring the country-specific statements and certifications, and sometimes more.

### Payroll

Localization settings can be accessed by going to {menuselection}`Payroll --> Configuration -->
Settings` and searching for the country's **Localization** section.
