Question
I’m traveling to Japan for business and I want to make a good impression by introducing myself in Japanese during meetings. How should I say “Nice to meet you, my name is [Your Name]. I look forward to working with you.” in Japanese?

初めまして、[Your Name]です。どうぞよろしくお願いします。
Hajimemashite, [Your Name] desu. Douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
Nice to meet you, my name is [Your Name]. I look forward to working with you.
Introducing yourself in a business setting in Japan involves a simple but essential phrase. “Hajimemashite” is equivalent to “Nice to meet you”. Following this, state your name by saying “[Your Name] desu.”
Finally, “Douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu” is a polite way of saying “I look forward to working with you.” This phrase conveys respect and sets a positive tone for future interactions.
Remember to bow slightly when introducing yourself for an extra touch of cultural awareness.
