It depends on what you're talking about. A toe loop is a toe loop, no matter where you are. So if their description is clearer to you, then you can certainly use it. Pattern dances are the same starting at the pre-silver level, internationally. Moves in the field patterns vary (or whatever that country calls that set of skills). Competition rules / qualifications probably vary. Test rules would vary.
Consider what is constant, and what could be variable; it will be pretty common sense.
