Which music distributors support Khmer language or non-Latin scripts?


If you're looking to distribute music in Khmer language (the official language of Cambodia), not all distribution platforms explicitly support it in their metadata or song titles. However, some platforms are more flexible with language support. Here are some distributors that **may support the Khmer** language, either directly or by allowing the artist to input metadata in non-Latin scripts:


1. DistroKid

   - Language Support: DistroKid allows for a wide range of non-Latin scripts, including some Southeast Asian languages. Although Khmer is not explicitly listed, users can upload content in various languages.

   - Customer Support: If you're unsure, you can contact DistroKid's support team to confirm if Khmer metadata is supported.


2. RouteNote

   - Language Support: RouteNote is more flexible and allows non-Latin scripts, making it likely that you can input Khmer text in your track titles and metadata. It’s recommended to reach out to their support to confirm Khmer support.

   - Regional Focus: Since RouteNote is often used by artists targeting multiple international platforms, including niche or regional ones, there’s a higher chance of accommodating less common languages.


3. Amuse

   - Language Support: Amuse supports music from many regions, and you can input metadata in non-Latin characters. However, it’s advisable to check with their customer support if they specifically support Khmer in titles and descriptions.


4. TuneCore

   - Language Support: TuneCore supports non-Latin characters, including various Asian languages. While Khmer isn't explicitly listed, there’s a chance it’s supported. You can check with TuneCore’s support team for verification.


5. CD Baby

   - Language Support: CD Baby supports a wide variety of languages, including non-Latin scripts. If Khmer is not listed, they may still accommodate it. Reaching out to their support team would help you confirm.


6. UnitedMasters

   - Language Support: UnitedMasters generally supports artists from various regions, and they have more flexibility with metadata in different languages. Contact their support team to see if Khmer is an option.


What You Can Do:

1. Reach out to support: For each of these distributors, the best approach is to reach out directly to their support teams to confirm Khmer language support for song titles, metadata, and lyrics.

2. Try Inputting Khmer Text: Some platforms may not explicitly list Khmer, but they might accept it when you upload your content. Try inputting Khmer text during the upload process and see if it works.


### Summary:

- DistroKid, RouteNote, Amuse, TuneCore, CD Baby, and UnitedMasters are the most flexible and have a higher chance of supporting Khmer language in metadata. It’s always best to contact their support teams to get explicit confirmation.


If you're planning to distribute music primarily to Cambodian listeners, these services will distribute your tracks to platforms available in the region, like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, etc. However, you should ensure the platforms themselves support Khmer text if that is a priority for your audience.
