# Translated countries and provinces names available in Shipping Profiles

As of the 2021-01 API version, a new field `translated_name` will be available in [`DeliveryCountry`](https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/graphql/reference/shipping-and-fulfillment/deliverycountry) and [`DeliveryProvince`](https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/graphql/reference/shipping-and-fulfillment/deliveryprovince) types. The translated name of the country or province is based on the user locale.
