The Maldives do a lot of trade as everything is imported. Business tends to be conducted in a more informal way, with more casual attire in lightweight materials. Meetings are usually scheduled for mornings and are typically conducted in English. Women, in particular should dress conservatively. Business hours are usually 07:30 to 14:30 Sunday to Thursday.
