Gesture & etiquette
Hold the card with both hands at the edges, writing facing the recipient, bow slightly as you present it. When receiving, hold with both hands, read carefully with a respectful nod, place it on the table in front of you in order of seniority.
Business card exchange (meishi koukan) is a ritual. Present with both hands, writing facing the recipient, with a slight bow. Receive with both hands, read it carefully, then place it on the table — never stuff it in your pocket or write on it.
