I have a task to add a new custom culture (en-cn). There isn't a problem from coding side and I used CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder for this but I can't create this culture on the Azure AppService, Register method throws an exception and requires extra-permissions.

Have you met something similar?

According to your description, I think you want to make your app globalization and localization via CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder Class in .NET Framework. However, as the figure below, it requires sysglobl.dll which is a system call that can not be used in Azure App Service (WebApp).

The reason is Win32k.sys (User32/GDI32) Restrictions said in Azure Web App sandbox, as below.

To fix it, you can consider to use other solution to support internationalization (i18n) in your ASP.NET website. Please refer to the blog Understanding Globalization and Localization in .NET to realize it.
