How to Choose the Right Bill Book Type for Your Business
Selecting the right bill book is important for keeping your business organised and making daily operations smoother. Different businesses in Dubai use different types of bill books depending on their work, number of copies needed, and style of record-keeping.
This guide will help you understand the main bill book options and choose the perfect one for your business needs.
1. Single Copy Bill Books
Single copy bill books contain one sheet per invoice. They are simple and cost-effective for businesses that only need one copy of each transaction.
Best for:
- Retail shops
- Small home businesses
- Cafés and kiosks
2. Duplicate (2-Ply) Bill Books
Duplicate bill books include two sheets for every invoice: one for the customer and one for your records. They are the most common type used in Dubai.
Best for:
- Restaurants
- Workshops
- Clinics
- Freelancers

Triplicate bill books create three copies of each invoice. They are ideal for businesses that need a customer copy, office copy, and accounts copy.
Best for:
- Contracting companies
- Logistics and delivery services
- Maintenance and field service teams

4. NCR Carbonless Paper
NCR (No Carbon Required) paper makes copies cleanly without using carbon paper. It keeps handwriting clear on all sheets and prevents ink smudging.

5. Bill Book Sizes (A4, A5, DL)
Your bill book size depends on the amount of information you need to include.
- A4 → Best for detailed invoices and service descriptions

- DL → Slim and compact, ideal for delivery or quick receipts
6. Binding Types
You can choose from different binding styles depending on how you use the bill book.
- Stapled pad → Simple and economical
