In human’s communicative activities, verbal communication plays a decisive role. However, on account of the continuous development of society, more and more experts and scholars have realized the importance of nonverbal communication, thus the study of nonverbal communicative behaviors has gradually increased.

That leads to the conflicts and collisions in intercultural business communicative activities. This paper, from the point of intercultural communication, inquires the classification, functions and applications of nonverbal communication in business communication; through the research of mistaken ideas in nonverbal communication between China and western countries, reveals the differences of these cultures; and with the combination cultural dimensions theory of Hofstede, brings forward the measures to avoid such mistaken ideas and promote intercultural commercial activities.
