BUSINESS ETIQUETTE IN LATINAMERICA
Latin American cultural points to note:Time: appointments may start later than the agreed
timeMeetings do not usually begin before 10amBe prepared to discuss business over a meal and
drinksDont be surprisedif you are invited to your hostshome
Business attire is usually formal and Latin peoplepay attention to the quality of clothing and per-sonal grooming
Your Spanish-speaking counterpart will discussfamily, sports and informal topics before busi-ness
Your Spanish-speaking counterparts must meet youpersonally before engaging in business deals;email/faxes are not very effective before thistime
As in Trinidad,minimal business is conducted inthe holiday season; factor this into schedulingbusiness trips
When hostinga meeting with a Spanish-speakingbusiness person, ensure that coffee is served
