Atlassian Translations – a collaborative environment for creating translations of JIRA

The Atlassian Translations site provides a collaborative environment for customers to translate JIRA. (Refer to the instructions for more information). At present there are thousands of accepted translations across a number of languages. We need your help to make this even better! If you are looking at updating or creating a language pack please use Atlassian Translations and tell us about your experience. You can log in with your My Atlassian account. To provide feedback or submit an existing language pack for import please contact The Internationalisation Team.

There is also a plugin currently in Beta release that allows you to translate most JIRA items on the fly: InProduct Translations.

What translations of JIRA are currently available?

Currently, JIRA ships with a number of translations in the most commonly-requested languages. You can easily update these via the Universal Plugin Manager — please see Managing JIRA's Plugins.

As a JIRA administrator, you can choose the default language from the list of installed languages: see Choosing a Default Language for the latest list.

Individual users can also choose their preferred language from the same list: see Choosing a Language.

What about translations of the documentation?

We do not currently offer translations of the JIRA documentation into other languages. However, we do offer a page where people can contribute the guides they have written in languages other than English: JIRA Documentation in Other Languages.
