A Guide to Behaviors to Avoid in Japan
Japan’s culture and customs differ from those of other countries, so foreigners need to be aware of common courtesies and manners when visiting Japan. Here are some behaviors by foreigners that Japanese people may dislike and other things to look out for:
Rude behavior: Although frowned upon in any country, Japanese people highly value courtesy, especially in Japan. So, it’s important to show politeness and respect to others.
Not taking your shoes off: In Japan, it is customary to remove shoes in the home and some indoor spaces. It is common to remove your shoes when entering a house, and they may ask you to remove your footwear in public places as well.
How to use chopsticks: Not knowing how to use chopsticks may lead to unintentionally breaching manners, so it’s a good idea to learn if you don’t already know how to use them.
Shouting: In Japan, you should refrain from shouting in public because you’re expected to be considerate in a quiet environment.
Pointing: Pointing at people or objects is considered rude. If you want to point at an object, using the entire palm of your hand is common.
Tattoos: In public places, especially in hot springs and swimming pools, they may ask you to hide your tattoos. This is because tattoos are associated with the yakuza.
Smoking in public: Smoking in public places is restricted and only allowed in designated areas, so you should avoid smoking in public places.
Harassment: Sexual harassment and discriminatory behavior are not tolerated in any country. These acts are also considered extremely problematic in Japan.
Garbage separation: They enforce strict garbage separation in Japan. It’s important to understand the rules of where you live, as they may differ from region to region.
As a foreigner, it’s important to respect local customs and manners and to be sensitive to cultural differences when visiting Japan. Keep it in mind to be respectful to the locals and to leave a good impression.
