What is the typical dress code at work and in public places? Is formal dress ever required?

Pretty casual. Short-sleeved shirt and khaki pants are fine for work. Shorts and tee shirt all other times. If you wear a suit you will stand out (besides with the heat and humidity you will sweat a lot). - Oct 2018


Much more casual than Stateside. For men, suits and ties are rare. Most men wear a Bula shirt (similar to Hawaiian shirt) with khakis. For women, skirts and dresses need to be just a few inches above the knee and shoulders mostly covered. Open-toe shoes are acceptable for everyone. - Apr 2016
