The standard business card in Poland measures 90 × 50 mm. The second common format is 85 × 54 mm, exactly credit-card size (ISO ID-1), so it fits wallet card slots.
Business card dimensions compared
| Size | Standard | In centimetres |
|---|---|---|
| 90 × 50 mm | standard in Poland | 9.0 × 5.0 cm |
| 85 × 54 mm | credit-card size (ISO ID-1) | 8.5 × 5.4 cm |
| 89 × 51 mm | US standard (3.5 × 2″) | 8.9 × 5.1 cm |
| 85 × 55 mm | standard in many EU countries | 8.5 × 5.5 cm |
Which format to choose?
90 × 50 mm is longer and narrower, and the Polish market is used to it. 85 × 54 mm looks more modern, does not stick out of a wallet and stands out in a stack of classic cards. Our business card calculator prices both formats the same.
Artwork: bleed and safe zone
Add 2 mm bleed on each side: design 94 × 54 mm for a 90 × 50 card, or 89 × 58 mm for 85 × 54. Keep text and logos at least 3 mm from the trim line. Designing in Canva? See our Canva guide.
