Leer másConsejos de etiqueta
Practice 'Taarof' by politely refusing food, drinks, or gifts two or three times before finally accepting.
Accept an offer immediately, as the first few offers are often a social formality rather than a genuine invitation.
Dress modestly in public; women should wear a headscarf (hijab) and loose clothing covering the arms and legs.
Wear shorts, sleeveless tops, or revealing clothing in public spaces, especially in religious areas.
Offer a polite verbal greeting or a slight nod to members of the opposite gender.
Initiate physical contact or a handshake with someone of the opposite gender unless they offer their hand first.
Show approval with a simple smile or a nod of the head.
Use the 'thumbs up' gesture, which has traditionally been considered an offensive sign in Iranian culture.
