GIFT GIVING IN IRELAND* -
Gift Giving Etiquette
BUSINESS GIFT GIVING /
PERSONAL GIFT GIVING
-
Generally, gift
giving is not part of Irish business culture. But, if you are invited to a
home for dinner, it's permissible to bring a token gift of flowers,
chocolates, a craft from your home region, or wine.
-
An illustrated book
from your home region can be another welcome gift.
-
A preserved food
product unique to your home region can also be a good choice; preserves must
be canned or bottled, however, or they will be confiscated by Irish customs.
-
Bear in mind that
your thoughtful choice is considered more important than the actual cost of
the gift.
