Tipping is a sign of decency, an indication you appreciate the effort your server, taxi driver, or porter has put into looking after you.
It can, however, be an etiquette minefield while travelling abroad, not to mention a costly gesture.
For those who hate the mental gymnastics that come with adding 15 per cent onto a bill at the end of a wine-soaked meal or tire of working out when and where to tip, you might consider a getaway to one of these countries.
That's because they're nations where it's considered poor form to leave a tip - and in some, tipping is downright insulting.
给小费是一种礼貌的表现，表明为了感谢服务员、出租车司机或是搬运工为照顾你而付出的努力。
然而，这可能是出国旅行时的礼仪雷区，更不用说代价高昂的举动了。
对于那些讨厌在一顿美酒大餐结束后受到在账单金额上添加15% 的心理惊吓、或者厌倦了总是在计算何时何地需要给多少小费的人来说，你可能会考虑去下列这些国家之一度假。
这是因为在这些国家，给小费被认为是不礼貌的行为，而且在某些国家，给小费甚至是一种彻头彻尾的侮辱。

Australia
Down under, tipping isn't expected, though neither is it sniffed at. In bigger cities a 10 per cent service charge is often included in the bill, and you won't raise any eyebrows leaving a tip when you order a flat white.
在澳大利亚，人们不指望顾客给小费，但也不会对此嗤之以鼻。在大城市，账单中通常已经包含了10% 的服务费，当你点一杯澳瑞白咖啡时，不用留下任何小费。

Switzerland
It's not customary to tip in Switzerland, where service charges are included in prices in most places under federal law. That said, if you're pleased with your service a gratuity would be welcome.
But don't fret about ensuring the waiters are adequately compensated: the country has one of the highest minimum wages in the world.
瑞士
瑞士没有给小费的习惯，根据联邦法律，大多数地方的价格中已经包含了服务费。也就是说，如果你对服务感到满意，欢迎支付小费。
但不必担心服务员得不到足够的报酬：该国是世界上最低工资最高的国家之一。

Argentina
A curious one. Under a 2004 labour law it is illegal to tip people working in hotels or restaurants. That doesn't mean it doesn't happen, nor that it isn't welcome.
The law isn't regularly enforced, though - tipping accounts for approximately 40 per cent of the average Argentine waiter's income, so it's a kindness to leave a little something.
阿根廷
一个有趣的地方是，根据 2004 年的劳动法，向酒店或餐馆工作人员支付小费是违法的。这并不意味着它不会发生，也不意味着它不受欢迎。
不过，这项法律并没有得到有效执行——小费约占阿根廷服务员平均收入的 40%，所以留下一点小费是一种善意的表现。

Belgium
Wages are handsome in Belgium, so tipping isn't expected. You won't be chased out of the restaurant for offering 10 per cent, however.
比利时
比利时的工资很高，所以不需要给小费。不过，你不会因为提供 10% 的小费而被赶出餐厅。

French Polynesia
No one expects a tip in French Polynesia - indeed, if you're bowled over by great service and offer a gratuity, the recipient may decline it. Some restaurants attach notes to a bill to advise whether or not tips are welcome, to avoid tripping clientele up.

Tipping is somewhat controversial in Singapore. A small offering won't cause offence when dining or taking a taxi. But it's officially discouraged: indeed, the government website states 'tipping is not a way of life' on the island.
新加坡
给小费在新加坡有些争议。在用餐或打车时，一份小礼物不会引起冒犯。但官方并不鼓励：事实上，政府网站上说，给小费并非这个岛国的生活方式。

COUNTRIES WHERE TIPPING IS AN INSULT
认为给小费是一种侮辱的国家
认为给小费是一种侮辱的国家
Japan
It's a slap in the face to offer a tip in Japan, where the cultural norm is to take great pride in your work. Employees hold themselves to a very high standard when supplying a service: no gratuity is needed to be feel appreciated.
Indeed, offering a tip suggests you don't think their employer recognises their value, so doesn't pay them enough.
日本
在日本，给小费是一种打脸行为，因为日本的文化规范是对自己的工作感到自豪。员工在提供服务时对自己要求非常高的标准：不需要小费就能感受到感激。
事实上，提供小费表明你认为他们的雇主没有认识到他们的价值，因此没有给予他们足够的报酬。

China
Here, it's all but forbidden. Leaving a gratuity used to be prohibited in China - for decades, leaving a tip was considered a bribe. To this day, in much of the country it's considered a personal affront to restaurant staff or hoteliers if you leave them a gratuity.
The exception are tour guides or tour bus drivers - you can hand them some cash for their troubles without causing offence.
中国
在这里，这几乎是被禁止的。在中国，付小费过去是被禁止的——几十年来，付小费被视为某种贿赂。直到今天，在这个国家的大部分地区，如果你给餐馆工作人员或酒店经营者小费，他们会被认为是对他们的个人侮辱。
导游或旅游巴士司机除外——你可以给他们一些现金来解决他们的麻烦，而不会冒犯他们。

It's true that when visiting the USA you're being made to feel like you're being begged for money. I don't particularly enjoy travelling to countries where you have to haggle for everything either. The feeling I get is the same but those tend to be developing countries, unlike the USA.

Visiting LA from the UK last year I was in a store in Santa Monica that sells Christmas stuff all year round, baubles etc… Had a wander round, didn’t speak to or see any staff at all, picked a souvenir bauble up & took it to the till to pay. The cashier spun one of their iPad gadgets around and I could see it was asking me to leave a tip! I asked the cashier what I as being asked to tip for, and she replied…. ‘for my smile?’!… Tipping is out of control over there now, it’s ridiculous.
去年我从英国去往洛杉矶旅行，当时我在圣莫尼卡的一家商场里，那里全年都在卖圣诞用品、各种小玩意等……我就是四处闲逛，根本没有和任何员工说话，也没有看到任何员工，我拿起一个纪念品小玩意，到收银台付款。收银员把她们的一个 iPad 小工具转了一圈，我看得出它在要求我给小费！我问收银员要小费是为了什么，她回答说：“为了我的微笑？”...... 现在那里的小费已经失控了，太荒谬了。

The USA has lost its marbles. The MINIMUM they expect now is 18 percent. It comes up as a list of options even when you pay be contactless card, Apple Pay etc. Cruise ships try to make it compulsory per head per day. Yet the cost of the meal in a restaurant is the same as where they PAY the waiters etc. It’s a gigantic CON! It’s why Americans abroad are fleeced so easily.

At this point , in the US, anything less than 25% is considered an insult. The worst part is that counter service (you order and then take your own food to your table) expects a 15% tip.

The more I read about this tipping conundrum, the more determined I get to stop tipping altogether. Businesses need to pay their employees a decent salary. That's what I've always done when I ran my business.Think about the following, US business owners. 1) We stop tipping. 2) Your staff can't survive on their basic earnings. 3) Your staff quits. 4) You no longer have a business !
QED, PAY YOUR STAFF !

归根到底，，给你的员工发正常水平的薪水！

Tipping should be at the discretion of the customer..good service good tip.
By the way why is service a % of the bill. It takes the same time and effort for the server to deliver a $70 steak as it does a $25 chicken dish. So why charge a higher tip/service charge more for serving the steak??
小费应由顾客自行决定......服务号小费也高
顺便说一下，为什么服务费按账单金额百分比收取。服务员送一份 70 美元的牛排和送一份 25 美元的鸡肉所花的时间和精力是一样的。那么，为什么要在提供牛排时收取更高的小费或者说服务费呢？

Tipping should be at the discretion of the customer..good service good tip.

I went on a river cruise and suggested tip was 10/euros each a day. 160 euros extra on holiday !
Who would pay that ?

aussies are the tightest people on earth as a black cab driver you never expect a tip from these people, all they worry about when they get in my cab is where is the cheapest place to eat where is the cheapest place to drink they really are money mad
澳大利亚人是全世界最吝啬的人，作为一个黑人出租车司机，你从来不能指望这些家伙会给我小费，当他们坐上我的出租车时，他们关心的只是哪里吃饭的地儿最便宜，哪里的酒最廉价，虽然他们真的都挺有钱的。

America…TIPS is To Insure Prompt Service …if you aren’t receiving a service or it isn’t prompt don’t give your money. You “tip” them to insure promptness. If they are inattentive they deserve nothing and be on your way.
在美国...小费是为了确保你获得即时服务... 如果你没有被服务或者它不是即时的，那就不要拿出你的钱。你付“小费”给他们是为了确保及时性。如果他们心不在焉，他们就什么都不配得到，你只管离开就好。

Their pay is pretty good, actually. But that makes everything expensive. The down side is that their food ingredients run out, or supplies on the shelves are not fully stocked. A few times when I've gone out to eat, a dish on the menu couldn't be served because ingredients ran out, or hadn't been delivered in a timely manner. That's really rare in the US. I've only been in NZ a week, and it's happened multiple times already...
事实上，他们的工资相当不错。但这让一切都变得昂贵。不利的一面是，他们的食品原料用完了，或者货架上的供应品库存不足。好几次我出去吃饭时，菜单上的菜因为食材用完或没有及时送达而无法上桌。这在美国真的很罕见。我只在新西兰呆了一周，而这已经发生过好几次了......
