UAE National Day corporate gifts: ideas and timing
What companies give for Eid Al Etihad on 2 December, and how early to order so it arrives printed and on time.
Eid Al Etihad, the UAE National Day, falls on 2 December. Offices are decorated, teams dress in the colours of the flag, and many companies give a small gift to staff, visitors and clients. A good National Day gift is something people wear or use on the day itself.
Gifts people wear on the day
Scarves, badges, pins and caps in red, green, white and black are the simplest way to dress a whole team. They cost little per piece, they photograph well, and they can carry your company logo next to the national theme.
Gifts that stay after the day
A bottle, a notebook or a gift set in the flag colours keeps being used after the celebration is over. These suit clients and partners, where you want the gift to stay on the desk.
Gifts for visitors and events
If you are hosting an event or expect many visitors, choose items with a low price per piece and a low minimum quantity: pins, flags, pens and tote bags.
When to order
Count back from the day you need the gifts. Printing takes 4 to 5 working days, delivery takes 1 to 3 working days, and you need a day or two to approve the design. Stock also matters: National Day items sell out as the date gets closer, so ordering in early or mid November is the safe choice.
