SOCIAL HINTS: social life tends to be quite informal. Dress is casual except for the odd occasion. Local customs should be respected. Visitors should request permission from security personnel before photographing military or police installations.
BUSINESS HINTS: business is conducted in a semi-formal manner. Dress is fairly informal (That's great! Specially for the weather that you'll find there). A knowledge of portugese is useful for business. Anyway, if you speak Spanish (as me) we undestand portugese very, very well and they (people from Guinea-Bissau too!) Visits during Ramadan should be avoided.
