Timorese traditions of clothing are modest. Garments above the knee (for both men and woman) are rarely acceptable in a professional or traditional social occasion.
Dress standards mean a lot in Timor-Leste. Smart casual clothes are ideal, especially when dealing with officials and it is best not to wear expensive jewellery when you are out and about.
When visiting remote islands or villages, basic protocols and respect for local customs and people should be adopted.
It is polite to wait until your host invites you to sit down or to eat and drink.
