How can I show the certification for another country

The rating for movies (and I assume TV shows) differ from MPAA to Australia, especially what MPAA refer to a 'R', here it's most likely MA15+ (so my 16 year old can watch it).

When searching in IMDB the certification that is displayed under the title is from MPAA.

Any idea how to change that to show another country's certification?

Would making deciding on something to watch much faster.

This is controlled via your country setting on https://www.imdb.com/preferences/general  (as described on https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/general-information/site-preferences/GDL9NWJRKWRH5L6K). 

However, it seems there might be a software bug in play here is the certificates at the top of the title page are not properly localising for Australia.   We will open a ticket with the appropriate team to investigate.

A quick update here ... we have fixed the underlying issue with the display of Australian certificates on the web site.  Thanks again for reporting this.
