In Japanese culture, the greeting is called ‘’ojigi”.

► The first way to bow is to give a slight nod when meeting friends of the same age, junior co-workers, or people of a younger age.

► The second way is called “eshaku”, which is a 15 degree bow, which is used to greet people who have known for a short time but are not too close.

► The third method is called “keirei”, which is a formal way of greeting someone who is older than you or to your boss or boss.

► The fourth way of greeting is a 45 degree bow, almost parallel to the ground, called a “saikeirei”, which expresses gratitude to someone.

Dogeza is used when a person greeting someone of a very high status or when the person has made a very serious mistake and wants to apologize. In some cases the Japanese also bow in a dogeza style when they want to ask for a favor from the opposite person.
