Iran dos:
- Do shake hands with a child to show respect to their parents.
- Do check to see if the host is wearing shoes. If not, remove yours at the door.
- Do dress conservatively if invited to someone’s house for dinner.
- Do try to arrive at the invited time as punctuality in Iran is appreciated.
- Do check to see if your spouse is included in the invitation as it is custom for conservative Iranians to only entertain single-sex groups.
- Do remove your shoes before going inside mosque.
- Do dress modestly visiting mosque so that your body and limbs are covered. Women must cover their hair and not expose anything above their ankles. Men should not wear shorts. In some mosques the caretaker provides visitors with a long robe when their clothes are inappropriate for the mosque.
