You need business cards in Muscat. You called three printers, got three different numbers, two of them refused to commit to a price until you sent artwork. We get it. This guide walks through what a business card actually costs in Oman in 2026, the finishes that matter, the turnaround you can realistically expect, and where the markup hides.

The real numbers

At BHD Printing & Designing, our published prices are:

Matte 300gsm, OMR 6 per 100 cards. The everyday workhorse. Smudge-resistant, professional, no surprises.
Soft-touch 350gsm, OMR 8 per 100. The most-requested finish in 2026. Velvety feel that signals premium without crossing into luxury.
Luxury 450gsm with spot UV or foil, OMR 15 per 100. For CEOs, law firms, luxury brands.
NFC tap cards, OMR 25 each. Re-programmable chip + QR backup. Tap-to-share on any modern phone.

All prices include VAT and standard finishing. No setup fee for repeat orders. No design fee if you supply print-ready artwork.

Where competitors hide the markup

Most printers in Muscat quote a base price then add line items:

Setup or origination charge, OMR 5 to 15 on top of the base price for first-run jobs. BHD includes this in the base.
Design fee, OMR 10 to 30 if you don't have artwork. We charge OMR 5 flat for a single-card layout.
Cutting and finishing, often added as a separate line. We include standard cutting.
Rush surcharge, 20 to 50% extra for same-day. We do same-day at the standard price when confirmed before 11 AM.

Turnaround in Muscat, the honest version

Standard digital print: 2 to 3 business days. Same-day available for matte and soft-touch if confirmed before 11 AM Sunday to Thursday. Hot foil and spot UV typically add 1 to 2 days because the foil dies need to be made. NFC cards: 5 to 7 days because we program each chip individually.

What to send a printer

Logo as SVG or high-resolution PNG (300dpi minimum).
Name, role, phone, email, address as plain text.
Brand colour preference (HEX, RGB, or Pantone reference).
Quantity. 100 is the minimum for digital print.

That is enough for our team to send back a digital proof within 2 hours during business hours, or within minutes if you message our AI agent Anna on WhatsApp at any hour.

Bilingual Arabic + English layouts

If you need bilingual cards, send the Arabic text in Tajawal, Cairo, or IBM Plex Sans Arabic. We never apply Latin letter-spacing to Arabic, which is the most common mistake other Muscat printers make and the reason bilingual cards look broken.
