+kernel.locale_aware
+-------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 4.3
+
+    The ``kernel.locale_aware`` tag was introduced in Symfony 4.3.
+
+**Purpose**: To access and use the current :doc:`locale </translation/locale>`
+
+Setting and retrieving the locale can be done via configuration or using
+container parameters, listeners, route parameters or the current request.
+
+Thanks to the ``Translation`` contract, the locale can be set via services.
+
+To register your own locale aware service, first create a service that implements
+the :class:`Symfony\\Contracts\\Translation\\LocaleAwareInterface` interface::
+
+    // src/Locale/MyCustomLocaleHandler.php
+    namespace App\Locale;
+
+    use Symfony\Contracts\Translation\LocaleAwareInterface;
+
+    class MyCustomLocaleHandler implements LocaleAwareInterface
+    {
+        public function setLocale($locale)
+        {
+            $this->locale = $locale;
+        }
+
+        public function getLocale()
+        {
+            return $this->locale;
+        }
+    }
+
+If you're using the :ref:`default services.yaml configuration <service-container-services-load-example>`,
+your service will be automatically tagged with ``kernel.locale_aware``. But, you
+can also register it manually:
+
+.. configuration-block::
+
+    .. code-block:: yaml
+
+        services:
+            App\Locale\MyCustomLocaleHandler:
+                tags: [kernel.locale_aware]
+
+    .. code-block:: xml
