  Most of the time folded leaflets are zero-rated, however, can be subject to VAT depending on the information supplied.

Another circumstance whereby Vat is chargeable, is if the design contains a form.

• How do you print your A4 slim folded leaflets?

  We use digital and lithographic printing techniques to offer both small and large run A4 slim folded leaflets at the most competitive prices. Your design will be printed in full colour to one or both sides using a CMYK process.

• What is CMYK?

  CMYK is an acronym for cyan, magenta, yellow and black. These are the colours used in the printing process of your A4 slim folded leaflets.

• What do you mean by crease fold?

  When folding thicker paper like 250gsm, the fibers at the edge of the flap can sometimes crack. In order to prevent this, any paper stock that is 250gsm or thicker is crease folded. Creasing weakens the paper at the fold to make it easier to fold.

• What is uncoated paper stock?

  Uncoated has no surface coating with a rougher texture that is suitable for writing on.

• What is gloss paper stock?

  Gloss paper is a smooth-coated stock that has a shiny surface and is brilliant for designs with vibrant colours, backgrounds and images.

• What is silk paper stock?

  Silk paper is a coated stock with a slight sheen. This allows the print to be vibrant and crisp but has a softer undertone than a high-shine gloss finish. This stock is also suitable to write on with a ballpoint pen.
