Tipping has varied connotations in different cultures around the world, and each country has its own tipping rituals. It refers to an additional payment made to service industry employees based on the quality of the service they offer.
However, the amount and timing of tipping and social expectations vary greatly from country to country. Tipping has become an accepted cultural practice in the United States. In general, tipping in the United States ranges between 15 and 20 percent on average. For detailed information, please see the table below. Tipping is an important source of income for service workers in the United States.
The situation is a little different in Europe. For example, in the UK it is common to tip 10-15 per cent of the bill in restaurants, whereas in Scandinavian countries and Germany it is lower or in some cases included in the service charge. In countries such as Italy and France, the service charge is usually included in the bill and tipping extra is left entirely to the customer's discretion.
Similarly in Asia, tipping rates vary from country to country. In Japan and South Korea, for example, tipping is not a common practice and can even be considered rude. However, in other Asian countries such as Thailand, India and China, tipping may be more common in tourist areas and big cities.
In Latin America, particularly in tourist areas, it is common to tip at rates similar to those in the United States. However, these rates can vary from country to country and even from region to region.
As a result, tipping is practiced differently around the world and it is important to be aware of these differences when travelling or interacting with different cultures. For those working in the service sector, tipping is considered not only an extra source of income, but also an indication that the service rendered is appreciated.
