Austrailia

Clothing-
For men going to a meeting for the first time, a conservative business suit is a very common thing to wear. Many companies allow business casual dress, which is usually nice pants and a collared shirt with or without a jacket. For Women, dresses, pantsuits, or business suits are a good idea for a meeting for the first time. Limited accessories are fine, and you should not wear revealing clothing. Jeans and more casual attire are common in some companies.

Business Etiquette-
In Australia, things are not very formal so greetings are casual and relaxed. A handshake and smile suffices. An Australian might say ‘G’day’ ‘mate’, a foreigner should just say hello and how are you. Appointments are very necessary and very easy to schedule.
Dining Customs-
When you are invited to an Australians house for dinner, it will likely be a ‘barbie’ BBQ. When you go to their house for the dinner, the guests typically bring a gift like wine or beer. You should always arrive on time, or no more than fifteen minutes late if you are invited to somebody’s house for dinner. And you should always be in contact with your host to see if you are in need to bring a dish.
