Question
What is the standard business card size in the U.S.?
Answer
The US standard business card is 3.5" x 2" at the trim, the size that fits standard wallets and cardholders. Your print file should be slightly larger to include bleed.
| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Trim size | 3.5" x 2" (89 x 51 mm) |
| File size with bleed | 3.75" x 2.25" |
| Bleed | 0.125" per side |
This format has been the go-to in the United States and Canada for decades because it fits wallets and holders. Square, mini, and oversized options exist if you want to stand out.
