  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Ideal window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Fukuoka has a strong start-up culture and is slightly more informal than Tokyo, but standard Japanese etiquette (punctuality, politeness) still applies strictly. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour for all professional inquiries.

  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The "Gold Window" for calls is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Vietnamese business culture is energetic and relationship-driven; deals are often sealing during meals. Small gifts or gestures of respect are common in-person, but for virtual calls, maintain a warm, polite, and enthusiastic tone.
