The standard size for a regular business card is 3.5" × 2" inches.
Business card sizes vary from country to country but as mentioned above, the standard size for an average business card is 3.5” by 2”.
That said, while a ‘typical’ business card size does exist, there are a wealth of widely-used business card styles or sizes. For your reference, here’s an explanation of our three standard business card sizes in addition to a rundown of standard business card dimensions depending on country or region.
Standard business card:
This type of business card is industry standard and commonly used by brands, businesses and individuals across industries the world over.
Mini business card:
The mini business card is slightly more compact and slimline than the standard business card and comes in three different sizing options.
Oversize business cards:
The oversize business card is more reminiscent of early trade cards in terms of size and its dimensions make it slightly longer than a standard business card, although it is still considered to be wallet sized.
Other sizes:
These business cards are defined by standard sizing in different regions in addition to commonly used gift or credit card sized options.
