Verified steps

  1. Pass the `@inContext(country: DE, language: DE)` directive on your query or mutation to tell the Storefront API to resolve prices, currency, and translated content for Germany in German
  2. Query `localization { country { currency { isoCode symbol } } }` alongside your product query to confirm the resolved country and currency before presenting prices to the buyer
  3. Access `priceRange.minVariantPrice { amount currencyCode }` on Product and `price { amount currencyCode }` on ProductVariant — these fields automatically return localized amounts when @inContext country is set
  4. For language-localized strings (titles, descriptions, metafields), ensure the market has translations registered via `translationsRegister` and that the queried language code matches a supported locale for that market
  5. Use the `market` field on the `localization` query result (available in recent API versions) to confirm which Shopify Market the buyer context resolved to
  6. For cart creation, set `buyerIdentity { countryCode: DE }` on `cartCreate` rather than relying solely on @inContext — cart pricing resolution uses buyerIdentity country, not the directive country, for cart mutations
