GIFT-GIVING CUSTOMS IN VIET NAM
Gift-giving is important in Viet Nam because of the significance of interpersonal relationships in Vietnamese culture.
First and foremost, do not encourage corruption. There is a clear cut between gift-giving and
bribery. Nevertheless, it is common in Viet Nam for exchanging small gifts on certain occasions such
as anniversaries, Tet holidays... to express respect, love, appreciation, or gratitude.
Gift-giving customs depend on the context. If it is a private gift for one Vietnamese partner you
should give the gift at a private occasion. If you have a gift for the whole office or company, you
should give it after the business meeting with the whole office employee.

Viet Nam. Gifts that symbolize cutting such as scissors, knives, and other sharp objects should be
avoided because they mean the cutting of the relationship.
