The More You Know:

Tipping is not expected but appreciated in nearly half of the world’s countries and territories, and it is customary in about one third of the world.

Leaving a tip is most customary in the Americas and Africa, and the least customary in Asia-Pacific. In more than half of Europe, tipping is not expected but appreciated.

Skip paying a tip in most island nations of the South Pacific Ocean, because it goes against Polynesian culture, and in Japan it's not recommended, as it could be insulting.

In some countries, where the US dollar is not the main currency, they will still accept it along with local currency.

Be aware and be generous where tips are expected and appreciated!
