GIFT GIVING IN CHILE* -
Gift Giving Etiquette
BUSINESS GIFT GIVING
-
Gifts are not
expected in a business context until the relationship becomes close.
-
Don't select
anything that is obviously expensive; your generosity may be perceived as
a bribe.
-
Ensure that your
gift is wrapped and has a card enclosed.
PERSONAL GIFT GIVING
-
When visiting a
Chilean home, flowers or candy are standard gifts for the hostess; a gift
of flowers should be sent in advance. Avoid yellow roses, as they are
perceived as a sign of contempt. Moreover, purple and black flowers
symbolize death.
