Dubai Chamber Canva Business offer: who qualifies

The offer is available to Dubai Chambers members who have not had a paid Canva subscription before. Companies with Dubai-issued trade licences are expected to become eligible in the near future, so the current terms do not cover every Dubai-based business.

The subscription includes tools for social media designs, presentations, websites and videos, along with Brand Kits and Canva’s AI-powered features. The company can add up to 50 staff members to the account for the one-year period. This Dubai Chamber Canva Business offer is free for eligible members.

Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy Vice President Saeed Al Gergawi said the programme would make professional AI-powered design capabilities more accessible to SMEs and help them strengthen their digital presence. Canva’s regional partnership with Dubai Chamber was announced at the World Governments Summit 2026, with a five-year target of supporting 250,000 digital SMEs and individuals, as detailed in the earlier Dubai Chambers agreement.

For eligible companies, the offer is a straightforward way to put more staff on Canva without adding the usual subscription line to the budget. Applications are handled through the Canva offer on Business in Dubai.
