The world has become a much smaller place with the advent of the
internet. The economy of the world’s nations is more connected than
ever before.
Foreign business etiquette has become an important part of the
business world. It is necessary to know how to deal with business
owned by people of various cultures. Because of the prevalence of
China on the world scene, negotiating with Chinese people is a part of
international trade.
Here are some Chinese business etiquette tips to help you in your
business dealings with the Chinese.

Know the language. This doesn’t mean that you have to learn Chinese.
It could be as simple as hiring a translator.
The fact is, negotiating with Chinese business owners can be tricky due
to the language barrier.
A translator will help you to ensure that the deal you work out is
understood by all parties involved. Have them repeat back to you the
arrangement that was reached so that no one misunderstands.

FACE TO FACE NEGOTIATIONS ARE AN
IMPORTANT PART OF FOREIGN BUSINESS
ETIQUETTE.
Video conferencing has made it possible to connect across the globe.
This is great for update meetings, but if you really want to make a good
impression and form a good working relationship, proper Chinese
business etiquette calls for negotiating in person.

You lose face when your actions are revealed, not when you commit
them. Don’t embarrass a Chinese businessman if you want to continue
having a good working relationship.
By showing them respect and giving sincere compliments, you help to
build someone’s reputation and will improve your working relationship
even further. Age and experience are very important to the Chinese.
Show extra respect to older ones.
Don’t demand as much respect if you are significantly younger. Paying
attention to the proper showing of respect and honor is a vital part
of negotiating with Chinese people.

There is a big difference between a bribe and a gift. Chinese business
etiquette allows for gifts when there is reason (some sort of celebration
or occasion) and witnesses.
Gifts in secret with no apparent reason can be misconstrued as having
an ulterior motive. Don’t be cheap with your gifts.
Money is not an appropriate gift. Get something that holds aesthetic
value and is considered beautiful. Your gift giving will be reciprocated.

Foreign business etiquette requires that you be in the know. This will
ensure that you do not misstep and do anything offensive.
On the other hand, it will ensure good business relationships and
advancement of your operation.
