Allow Portal for ArcGIS to restrict the scope of a Geocode search by passing parameters in the same way as is allowed in ArcGIS online. So for example to restrict the Geocode service in AGOL you can append sourceCountry=AUS which works well.

http://geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer?sourceCountry=AUS

Unfortunately the same does not work in Portal and it will not accept the Geocode Service when parameters are appended to the URL.

This should be possible, if You adapt Your "Geocode Service" config in /portal/sharing/rest/portals/0123456789ABCDEF/update by adding the language code.

Example:

[{"url":"https://maps.vdl.lu/portal/sharing/servers/8e3ff30824ce470b9c03d292a6957445/rest/services/World/Geoc...?sourceCountry=LUX","name":"ArcGIS World Geocoding Service","isEsriBatchGeocoder":true,"placeholder":"Find address or place","singleLineFieldName":"SingleLine","batch":true,"placefinding":true,"suggest":true,"zoomScale":1000}]
