How much to tip around the world
Tipping rules change a lot from one country to the next. In the US it is part of a server's pay, while in Japan it can feel awkward or even rude. Tap a country to see what locals expect, then send the suggested percentage straight to the calculator. The currency and the tips by service below follow the country you choose.
United States
Expected, 15–20%
Tips are part of servers’ pay. Leave 15–20% at restaurants and bars, and check whether a gratuity is already added for large groups.
