- For men, suits in lightweight fabrics or combining trousers with long or short-sleeved shirts and a tie are appropriate. Business casual dress is suitable, i.e., shirt and trousers, without a necktie. For more formal meetings, a suit and tie is preferable.
- For women, dresses of lightweight fabric and blouses are considered appropriate as long as they cover most of the body.
- Most local women wear a headscarf along with a long black robe that completely covers the body. Some women even wear the veil.
- Even though foreign women are not expected to follow this dress code, it is nevertheless recommended that clothing that covers the arms (a loose blouse or a jacket) and legs (a long skirt, or preferably, slacks) be worn. Nothing too form-fitting or low-necked should be worn. Long hair should be worn up, to provide more modesty.
- Official events require formal business attire (i.e. full business suit).
- Avoid wearing any kind of revealing clothing, such as shorts, Bermuda shorts, or camisoles in public..
