 Payroll localizations
 =====================
 
-Payroll localization refers to the process of adapting payroll systems, policies, and compliance
-measures to align with the specific labor laws, tax regulations, and social security requirements
-of a particular country or region. This ensures that employee salaries, benefits, deductions, and
-contributions are processed accurately and in full compliance with local legal and financial
-obligations. Localization also includes integrating country-specific payroll elements such as
-statutory benefits, holiday entitlements, termination rules, and reporting requirements, helping
-businesses avoid legal risks while ensuring employees receive their correct compensation.

+
+Install localization package
+============================
+
+A country-specific localization module :ref:`must be installed <general/install>` to properly
+configure and process payroll. To install the required module, first open the **Apps** app.
+
+Clear out the default :icon:`fa-filter` :guilabel:`Apps` filter, then type the name of the desired
+country into the search bar. All available modules for that country are presented.
+
+.. example::
+   Some countries only have one localization module, while other have multiple modules. This is
+   typically when other software is neede to process payroll, and importing and exporting data is
+   required.
+
+   For example. when searching for **Payroll** modules for `Egypt`, the following modules appear in
+   the search, and must be installed: `Egypt - Payroll` and `Egypt - Payroll with Accounting`.
+
+   Refer to the :ref:`country-specific documentation <payroll_localizations/countries-list>` for a
+   complete list of the related **Payroll** modules required for each specific country.
+
+.. tip::
+   To see if any localization modules have been installed on the database, navigate to
+   :menuselection:`Payroll app --> Configuration --> Settings`. In the :guilabel:`Settings` page, if
+   a localization module was installed, a :guilabel:`(Country) Localization` section appears.
+
+.. warning::
+   It is **not** recommended to alter the localization settings, unless specifically required.
+
+.. note::
+   Odoo can handle a multi-company configuration. This is generally done when there is a main
+   company or office location, such as a headquarters, and there are other offices/branches around
+   the country or globe, that fall under that main company or headquarters. In Odoo, each company,

+   method.
