Etiquette in Japan - Business Cards

Business Cards

The Japanese always hand a business card with both hands, and never put a business card in wallet or back pocket.

When meeting a group of people, they place business cards from top to bottom in order of importance. When seniority is not certain, they place them side by side.

Famous quotes containing the words business and/or cards:

    We are in danger ... of making our cities places where business goes on but where life, in its real sense, is lost.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    The world is a puzzling place today. All these banks sending us credit cards, with our names on them. Well, we didn’t order any credit cards! We don’t spend what we don’t have. So we just cut them in half and throw them out, just as soon as we open them in the mail. Imagine a bank sending credit cards to two ladies over a hundred years old! What are those folks thinking?
    Sarah Louise Delany (b. 1889)
