About this document

Rude Gestures and Etiquette in Argentina by María Ayelén Guillén is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Argentines tend to stand close together and maintain direct eye contact. Physical contact between acquaintances, like touching or dusting each other off, is common among men. Argentines place importance on appearance and arriving fashionably late is acceptable, even expected, for social events. Punctuality is less emphasized in business settings as well, though it is best for visitors to be on time. Dressing formally and stylishly is highly valued in Argentina.
