Hi dear friends!
Update: Additional SharePoint Server 2013 LP’s (the full list) made GA, Generally Available since April 30 – SharePoint Server 2013 LP’s
Language support in SharePoint 2013 onprem…
(Lacking better info, I assume that the same list applies to SharePoint online)
Remember this anyone?
If you are like me you have not seen anything official on the topic of Language Packs and release dates and availability yet (written April 16, 2013).
I don’t know if anyone has put this info out there yet, but I have not found it and then I figure it won’t hurt to do it here I guess…
In my case, I was looking for Swedish, but others need to find their special local language, now I have some info for all of you:
| Jump to: |
| SharePoint Server 2013 LP’s (44 LP’s) |

| SharePoint in the languages listed under Server Language packs are also available in a localized server version, these are also available at MSDN |
SharePoint Server 2013
Since (March 28) April 30th, all Language Packs are now available as a free download (link) Select your language in the dropdown or use the directlink in the list below.
(serverlanguagepack.img) I recommend renaming the files when downloaded since all LP’s have the same name, add for example the two letter code for your country after the filename: serverlanguagepack_se.exe (Swedish SPS LP)
TechNet suggests you take one of the following actions:
For Windows Server 2012, open the .img file directly and run Setup.exe (double-click it).
For Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, use a program that can mount or extract .img files. Then run Setup.exe (double-click it).

Wictor Wilén who pointed out the simple fact to me that the Server LP’s were available on MSDN…a fact I had somehow managed to miss.
