How much does business card printing cost in Dubai?
Last updated 2026-08-22
In short
In Dubai, 100 double-sided business cards on 350 GSM with matt lamination cost from AED 95, 500 cards from AED 220 and 1,000 from AED 340. Spot UV adds roughly 20%, hot foil 35–50%, and PVC or NFC cards are priced separately from AED 12 per card.
What drives the price
Quantity is the biggest factor because setup is fixed. After that: paper weight, lamination type, special finishes (spot UV, foil, edge paint), and whether the job is standard or express.
Where people overspend
Ordering 100 cards at a time repeatedly is the most common waste — 500 cards cost about 2.3× the price of 100, not 5×. The second is paying for foil on both sides when only the front is ever seen.
Where it's worth paying more
400 GSM stock and soft-touch lamination change how the card is perceived far more than a heavier print coverage does, and they add only a small amount per card at 500+.
