Tips for a Better Visit
Check photos. Ask to review passport photos before finishing, since one customer had to request to see them.
Send WhatsApp. For a straightforward job, try sending the files and instructions over WhatsApp; one order was completed that way.
Flag urgency. Mention a tight deadline when ordering: a two-piece T-shirt job was completed in a couple of hours.
Discuss artwork. Ask about paper quality and design changes before printing, especially when the file needs refinement.
Check requirements. If the photo is for an ID, confirm the requirements and ask about a replacement if the first image fails them.

The Bottom Line
DESCO PRINTING - PHOTO STUDIO is a practical stop in Dubai Internet City for printing and official photos. Reviews mention same-day T-shirt printing, professional photos for LinkedIn, passport photos and Emirates ID pictures. The branch also handles posters, custom-size jobs and finishing such as punching and binding.
Speed is a clear strength. A two-piece T-shirt order for a VIP client was ready within a couple of hours, while another customer said custom sizes, thicknesses, punching and binding were completed within about an hour. A printed board was reportedly finished in five minutes, although that is a single example rather than a promised turnaround.
The staff’s hands-on help is useful when files are awkward. Customers describe getting support with format problems, paper selection, artwork changes and even transferring a large file through an external service. For professional photos, the studio took multiple shots and helped the customer choose one; for an ID photo that failed requirements, a replacement was made free of charge.
One caution is price: a poster was described as good quality but expensive. For passport photos, ask to see the images before completing the visit. WhatsApp ordering can also save time for simple print jobs.
