Every country has its tradition and principals that they follow when
conducting a certain business meeting or negotiation. However, these
traditions and principals are all differentiates from each other, some
in many ways, some in small ways. For instance, the format for mailing
address is varies in every countries. Also, many countries are heavily
dependent on first and last name of the receiver, but they are also
certain countries where they do not use family or surname name because
it is not custom in the country.
The examples of this would be Mongolia
where every member of the family has different surname except the
children of the household who gets they fathers first name instead of
last name. Hence, single Mr or Mrs. Smith would create confusion,
because it does not state the first name properly and it only addresses
the husband because the wife has a different family name from her
husband. if a letter was to be written to Mongolia from Canada, the
format for mailing address would be very different and there would be a possibility to confuse the receiver if the right name was not used.
