Dover ID cards
Company ID for the gateway to Europe
The Port of Dover is one of the world’s busiest passenger ports. In 2017 it handled around 11.7 million passengers and 2.6 million lorries, with ferries to Calais and Dunkirk from the Eastern Docks, and its Western Docks cruise terminal makes it the UK’s second-busiest cruise port. The port has been run by the Dover Harbour Board since 1606.
Thousands of jobs depend on that traffic: hauliers and freight forwarders, customs agents, ship suppliers, cleaning and catering contractors, coach operators and engineering firms. Many of their staff work on or around the docks, where everyone needs to be clearly identified.
The port issues its own passes for restricted areas, but the companies working there still need their own staff ID. We print company cards with each person’s photo, name, employer and role, colour-coded for drivers, office staff and contractors.
Every card is printed in full colour on both sides, so the back can carry a 24-hour depot contact, a vehicle registration or a card number.
Driver and freight ID
Drivers passing through Dover deal with checkpoints, depots and customers every day. Named photo ID from their employer helps them identify themselves quickly and professionally.
We can print a driver’s name, photo, employer and a depot contact, with a card number for your own records. See our ID cards for business or our ID card printing service.

Care staff ID in Dover
Care agencies supporting residents across Dover and nearby villages need ID that’s easy to check at the door.
We print carer cards with a large photo and the carer’s name and agency in bold, with a number on the back so residents and relatives can confirm a visit.
Your design stays on file, and new carers’ cards can be ordered one at a time and sent on next day delivery.
Two full-colour sides
Both sides of every card are printed in full colour. Hauliers often use the back for a 24-hour depot number and vehicle details, and hotels for the property address.
Give us the numbers
Tell us how many cards, one side or two, and when your drivers or staff need them.
Company cards that work alongside port passes
Staff working at the docks may carry more than one pass. Your company card should be easy to recognise.
We use your logo and brand colours, a large photo and the employer’s name at the top. Drivers, office staff and contractors can each have a different colour.
Send your logo or existing card and we’ll prepare a proof. Approved designs stay on file for new starters.

ID card questions from Dover
What hauliers, port suppliers and local businesses ask us.
Can you print Port of Dover security passes?
No. Restricted-area passes are issued by the port. We print company ID cards that your staff can carry alongside them.
Can driver cards show a depot contact and vehicle registration?
Yes. Both can go on the back of the card, along with a card number for your records.
Can contractors have a different colour from employees?
Yes. A separate colour or heading for contractors and visitors makes them easy to identify.
How quickly can cards reach Dover?
Once your proof is approved, cards are dispatched for next day delivery to Dover.
Is there a phone line?
Yes. Our phone support is open 24/7 on 0203 026 0565.
