Apple Intelligence will start rolling out to the public in U.S. English only when iOS 18.1 is released in October, but additional languages will be added over the next year. The features are compatible with any iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 16 model.
Apple told publications including The Verge that Apple Intelligence will support the following previously-unannounced languages in 2025:

Apple previously announced that support for versions of English spoken in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the U.K. will be added in December, and that support for Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish will be added next year.
iOS 18.1 is already available in beta for developers, and it includes Apple Intelligence features such as writing tools for proofreading text, notification summaries, suggested replies in the Messages app, the ability to record and transcribe phone calls, and a new "Clean Up" tool in the Photos app that can quickly remove objects from a photo.
