If you are dealing in international trade, you should make yourself knowledgeable about the customs of those you would like to gift.
Consider to give a gift that you know the recipient will appreciate. Research a bit; find out what their interests and hobbies are. Spend some time discovering what they like and will feel comfortable in knowing that this wasn’t just some anonymous purchase. It will be really worthy of respect.
There are some gifts that are almost always inappropriate. For example, gag gifts, especially if there is a sexual connotation. Underthings should never be given as a business gift, because this intimate gift is reserved for those in a close personal relationship.
Food and alcohol are other gifts to be careful of giving, which are very popular during the holidays. Keep in mind what the perceived value is in the culture of the person you are gifting. Remember it all depends on the person. Gifts should be for a specific individual based upon what you know or have learned about them.
Consider the amount of the gift depends upon the hierarchy in the company. The more expensive the gift should be the higher position a person holds. Be sure to never give similar gifts to all those you are gifting.
