Car Branding in brief

Car branding in Dubai costs from AED 600 for a partial wrap and from AED 2,000 for a full wrap at Printajo, plus a Mada Media permit of AED 520 (partial) or AED 1,020 (full) for a car. A partial wrap takes 2-3 working days, a full wrap 3-5. If the wrap changes the main colour, add the AED 120 Dubai Police fee.

Why brand a car

A sales car parks where your customers are

Vans get seen on the road. Cars get seen up close: in the client's car park in Business Bay, outside the villa in Arabian Ranches, in the queue at a Deira petrol station. That changes the design. A car wrap is read at two metres as often as at thirty, so the logo, the one service you want known and a phone number matter more than a busy collage.

A wrapped car also does something a paint job cannot. The vinyl sits over the factory paint and shields it from sun, sand and light scratches. When the car goes back to the leasing company or gets sold, the wrap comes off and the original colour is still there.

Partial or full

Partial vs full car wrap: what you actually get

Both use the same cast vinyl, lamination and warranty. The difference is coverage, colour-change paperwork and how long the car is off the road.

Feature	Partial car wrap	Full car wrap
Coverage	Printed graphics on the four doors, blended into the paint colour	Every paintable panel, including bonnet, roof and bumpers
Our price from	AED 600	AED 2,000
Typical market range	Sedan AED 800-1,500, SUV AED 1,200-2,000	Sedan AED 3,500-6,000, SUV AED 5,000-9,000
Car permit fee	AED 520	AED 1,020
Colour change	Usually no, the paint colour still dominates	Yes if over half the body changes: AED 120 Dubai Police fee and Mulkiya update
Time in our bay	2-3 working days	3-5 working days

Market ranges are from our vehicle branding cost guide and cover the wrap only. Permit fees are set by the authority and can change; intricate custom design adds about AED 500-2,000.

Who we wrap for

Car wraps for the way your car is used

The right coverage depends less on budget than on what the car does all day.

Partial

Sales and service cars

Doors carry the logo, the service and a WhatsApp number. Enough to be recognised in every client car park without the full-wrap cost.

Best for: Real estate agents, technicians, field sales teams

Full

Launch and hero cars

A full printed wrap turns one car into the centrepiece of a product launch, a mall activation or a showroom display.

Best for: Brand launches, events, dealership displays

Removable

Lease and rental cars

Cast vinyl comes off without damaging factory paint, so the car can go back to the leasing company clean. We need the leasing company's written OK before we start.

Best for: Leasing companies and rent-a-car fleets

Matte, satin, gloss

Colour-change wraps

Change the whole car to a brand colour or finish. Over half the body changes, so Dubai Police approval and a Mulkiya update come first.

Best for: Brand-colour cars, matte or satin finishes

How a car wrap is done

From your car's photo to a wrapped car in five steps

Most of the work happens before the car arrives. You only lose the car for the days it is in our bay.

01Model and photoSame daySend the make, model and year (a Nissan Sunny and a Toyota Land Cruiser are very different jobs) plus a photo. You get a written price the same working day.
02Mockup on your model1-2 daysWe place the design on a template of your exact car, checking door handles, fuel cap, sensors and badges so text never runs across them.
03Permit and colour approval3-7 daysWe submit the mockup for the Mada Media permit. For a colour change we also apply for Dubai Police permission and prepare the Mulkiya update.
04Surface prepHalf a dayThe car is washed, decontaminated and degreased. Badges, handles and lights are removed where needed, so edges are tucked, not cut on the paint.
05Wrap, post-heat, inspect2-5 daysCast vinyl is fitted panel by panel in our climate-controlled bay, post-heated on curves so it does not lift, and checked before handover.

Colour change rules

Changing your car's colour with a wrap? Do it legally

When a wrap changes the main colour of a car (more than half the body), the change has to be approved and recorded. Skip it and the car no longer matches its registration.

Personal cars: Dubai Police (CID) permission comes before the wrap is fitted
Dubai Police colour-change fee: AED 120
After fitting, the Mulkiya (registration card) is updated to the new colour
Commercial graphics also need the Mada Media advertising permit
We prepare the paperwork and tell you exactly which step you need to attend

Paint and removal

Will a wrap hurt your paint? Only if it is the wrong vinyl

Cheap calendered vinyl shrinks in Dubai summer heat. On a car that shows first on the bumpers and mirrors, where the film is stretched most, and old glue can bake onto the clear coat. We wrap cars in cast film such as 3M 2080, 3M IJ180Cv3 and Avery Dennison SW900, which holds its shape on curves and releases cleanly.

Removal is planned too. We warm each panel and peel at a low angle, then clean off any adhesive left behind. That matters most on lease cars, where a damaged bumper at return costs more than the wrap did. Read how to remove a vinyl car wrap the right way before anyone tries it with a scraper.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Is a partial or a full wrap better for a company car?

For a sales or service car, a partial wrap on the four doors from AED 600 usually does the job: logo, service and number are seen in every car park. Choose a full wrap from AED 2,000 when the car itself is the advert, for a launch, an event or a brand-colour fleet.

Do I need to update my Mulkiya after wrapping my car?

Only if the wrap changes the main colour, meaning more than half the body. Then Dubai Police approve the change (AED 120 fee) and the Mulkiya is updated to the new colour. A partial wrap that leaves the paint colour dominant normally does not need this. See our Mulkiya update guide.

Can I wrap a leased or rented car?

Yes, as long as the leasing or rental company agrees in writing first. Cast vinyl protects the paint and can be removed cleanly before you return the car. We plan removal at the start so the car goes back in the condition the lessor expects.

How long does a car wrap last in the Dubai sun?

Cast vinyl with UV lamination lasts about 3-5 years on a car in UAE heat. Roofs and bonnets take the most sun, so they age first. Hand washing and parking in shade help. Our wraps carry a warranty of up to 2 years against peeling, lamination failure and fading.

What does it cost to wrap an SUV compared with a sedan?

An SUV has more surface, so it costs more. Typical market prices are about AED 800-1,500 for a partial sedan wrap and AED 1,200-2,000 for a partial SUV wrap. Full wraps run about AED 3,500-6,000 for a sedan and AED 5,000-9,000 for an SUV. Send your model for an exact quote.

Can I wrap my personal car in a new colour without advertising?

Yes. A matte, satin or gloss colour-change wrap is popular on private cars. No advertising permit is needed without commercial graphics, but you must get Dubai Police (CID) permission before the wrap goes on and update your Mulkiya afterwards. See car colour change wraps for finishes, prices and the steps.
