Is CFBundleIdentifier Localizable?

Can we localize CFBundleIdentifier , I am using CFBundleIdentifier as a key to store something in Plist , In case CFBundleIdentifier is localizable I would not be able to access the data stored in Plist, I have looked into apple doc, as per my understanding CFBundleIdentifier is not localizable, Please correct me If I am wrong

CFBundleIdentifier uniquely identifies the bundle. Each distinct app or bundle on the system must have a unique bundle ID. The system uses this string to identify your app in many ways. For example, the preferences system uses this string to identify the app for which a given preference applies; Launch Services uses the bundle identifier to locate an app capable of opening a particular file, using the first app it finds with the given identifier; in iOS, the bundle identifier is used in validating the app’s signature.

The bundle ID string must be a uniform type identifier (UTI) that contains only alphanumeric (A-Z,a-z,0-9), hyphen (-), and period (.) characters. The string should also be in reverse-DNS format. For example, if your company’s domain is Ajax.com and you create an app named Hello, you could assign the string com.Ajax.Hello as your app’s bundle identifier.

No, the bundle identifier is not localizable. It's the unique ID of your app. It must remain constant.
