Hospitality plays a central role in Emirati culture and longer greetings are an important prelude before proceeding to other matters. Although Dubai is more liberal than neighbouring emirates and countries when it comes to dress, modesty is still advised. Government offices are open from 8.00am to 2.30pm. Private businesses usually operate from 9.00am to 6.00pm, but some are closed between 1.30pm and 4.30pm. As in most other Arab countries, weekends fall on Friday and Saturday.
