Printing Services in Dubai: Prices, Products and Delivery Guide
Dubai moves fast. A new shop opens, an exhibition starts on Monday, a restaurant changes its menu, and the print has to be ready before the doors open. That is why printing services in Dubai are judged on three things: quality, speed and clear pricing.
This guide is written for Dubai business owners, marketing managers and event teams. It shows which print products are ordered most, how their prices compare, how our courier delivery works, and how to prepare your files so the first print is right.

What businesses in Dubai order most
Business cards
Every meeting, trade show and networking event in Dubai starts with a card. Sales teams, consultants, real estate agents and clinics order standard cards for daily use, and premium finishes such as velvet lamination, foil or spot UV for senior staff.
Brochures and flyers
Restaurants, salons, gyms and property developers use flyers for promotions and brochures for detailed offers. A4 and A5 are the most common sizes, with bi-fold and tri-fold layouts for menus and company profiles.
Roll-up banners and posters
Exhibitions and shopping mall promotions need banners that go up fast. Roll-up and pull-up banners are easy to carry and set up, and large posters work for shop windows and events.
Flags and outdoor display
Teardrop, beach and sail flags are popular for shop openings, car showrooms and weekend sales because drivers and visitors can see them from a distance.
Promotional products
Branded mugs, pens, tote bags and USB drives are common giveaways at conferences and client meetings.

Artwork and file preparation
Good files give good prints. These are our general recommendations, and our team will check your artwork before printing.
- Send a PDF or a vector file such as AI or EPS, with images at 300 DPI at the final size.
- Use CMYK colours for print. Screen colours in RGB can look different on paper.
- Add 3 mm bleed around the edges and keep important text at least 3 mm inside the trim line.
- Convert fonts to outlines or embed them, so text does not change.
- Use your logo in vector or high-resolution format.
Tips for Dubai businesses
- Order before 3 PM when you need next-day delivery, and ask our team about same-day courier options before you order.
- Combine items into one order. Free delivery applies above AED 800, so adding banners or flyers to a business card order can remove the delivery charge.
- Keep one brand style across cards, flyers and banners. Use the same logo version and colours so Dubai customers see one consistent brand.
