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.
