Etiquette and Etiquette Finns pay great attention to etiquette when dealing with foreigners. They are used to keeping a distance of about 1.2 meters when talking. If the other person tries to get too close, it will be considered impolite. They will look contemptuously at taking off their shoes and picking their teeth in public. They don't like to see others hugging each other.
Meeting etiquette When Finns meet guests in social situations, men and women warmly shake hands. When Finns meet foreign friends, especially those who visit their families, they like to sign their names and leave messages to show their gratitude for their friendship. Finns like to be called by their titles. If you don't know their titles, you can call them managers in general.
Business Etiquette In recent 10 years, the economic and trade relations between Finland and China have developed greatly. Finns often discuss business in the office. Once they make a decision, shaking hands is as effective as writing. They pay attention to credit, and pre-arranged meetings usually arrive on time. If you are invited to the home of a local businessman, you can bring a bunch of flowers to his wife, but it must be an odd number.
Tourism etiquette is contrary to business activities. The best season to travel to Finland can be from June to September every year. In this season, you can see the rare wonders of extreme day in the world. Finland's open-air market is a must-see place for foreign tourists. What attracts them most is the stalls filled with various handicrafts. Finland attaches great importance to solving the problem of disabled people's difficulty in going out. There are parking spaces for the disabled in public places and elevators for the disabled at the subway gate. You don't have to tip when you take a taxi in Finland.
Funeral Etiquette Modern weddings in Finland are usually performed by a priest in a church and then registered. After the death of Finns, there are two forms: burial and cremation. Cremation is becoming more and more popular now. Religious funerals are usually presided over by the pastor of the church, and non-religious funerals are handled according to the instructions of the deceased.
Finns in dress etiquette often wear conservative suits at work, and pay more attention to clothes commensurate with their status in formal social occasions. Usually, men's clothes are straight and women's clothes are gorgeous. In daily life, Finns love sports. There are many styles of local sportswear, including jackets, bat shirts, handshake pockets, ski shirts, fitness clothes and various jerseys.
