The developer should ensure that the element to which the aria-braillelabel is applied has a valid, accessible name before applying the aria-braillelabel. The value of aria-braillelabel should not be empty or does not contain only whitespace characters. It should not coincide with the accessible name. The aria-braillelabel’s values should be localized to coincide with the document language. Lastly, the developer needs to communicate with the user that this attribute is available, especially if it contains Unicode Braille Patterns, to let the user know the settings to apply specific braille translations. A user will only use the aria-braillelabel if the accessible name does not give them the user experience they are looking for. If the aria-label is not able to define the string value of an interactive element, then the aria-braillelabel will be used to provide an adequate braille representation.

- Window roles: Aria-braillelabel can be used in window roles to define sub-windows to the main document window, within the same window, such as popup modal dialogues.
- Abstract roles: Abstract roles can use aria-braillelabel to help browsers organize and streamline a document. However, developers writing HTML markup shouldn’t use abstract roles, as it can result in any meaningful information to convey to assistive technologies or to users.

The aria-braillelabel is only used if the accessible name does not serve as an adequate representation in braille.

- aria-brailleroledescription: The aria-brailleroledescription and aria-braillelabel relate to each other because they both define and translate the string value. A difference between the two is that aria-braillelabel translates the elements into braille only if the accessible name can’t provide an adequate braille representation.
