Combi Card Inlay Types
1 Combi inlay configurations
Common builds: TK4100 + MIFARE Classic 1K EV1 (LF+HF access); EM4200 + Ultralight EV1 (transit migration); Ultralight C + UCODE 8 (HF+UHF, NFC plus inventory); three-chip combinations on request. Thickness 0.50-0.60 mm. Antenna: pre-wound coil or ultrasonic-embedded copper on PVC, PET or other substrate.
2 Combi vs dual-interface
A combi inlay places two or more independent contactless chips in one card so each serves a different system. A dual-interface inlay uses one CPU chip that talks over both a contact pad and a contactless antenna. If you need two separate technologies (say LF door access plus UHF parking), choose combi; if you need one secure CPU that works contact and contactless (EMV / eID), choose dual-interface.

Buyer Questions
Questions buyers usually ask before sample approval
These FAQs cover the points that usually come up between a first shortlist and a real sample or quote request.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for Combi Card Inlay? +
For Combi Card Inlay, the standard MOQ starts at 500 pieces on stock SKUs. Custom shapes, molds or non-standard materials typically move MOQ to 2,000–5,000 pieces to cover tooling setup. Exact MOQ and unit pricing are quoted per project once chip, customization and packaging are confirmed.
Does RFIDAK provide free samples of Combi Card Inlay? +
Yes. Stock card inlay samples of Combi Card Inlay are typically free; we only ask buyers to cover DHL/FedEx express shipping. Samples ship in 1–3 business days after your order is confirmed and arrive in 2–5 days to most countries. Custom samples (new chip, new size, printed artwork) usually take 3–7 additional days.
What is the production lead time for Combi Card Inlay? +
Standard Combi Card Inlay orders ship in 7–15 business days after PO confirmation and artwork approval. Large runs (>100k units) or orders with complex encoding / custom molds may take 15–25 business days. Rush production is available on request for time-sensitive launches; confirm MOQ and artwork early to protect the timeline.
Can Combi Card Inlay be customized for my brand or project? +
Yes. Combi Card Inlay supports end-to-end customization: full-color CMYK / silk-screen / UV printing, laser engraving, serial numbering, custom chip encoding (UID write, NDEF, sector locking), custom shape / size (subject to tooling MOQ), and packaging. Share your artwork, chip requirement and quantity and we will return a spec sheet + price within 24 hours.
Is Combi Card Inlay compatible with my existing reader or system? +
Compatibility depends on the frequency band (LF 125 kHz / HF 13.56 MHz / UHF 860–960 MHz) and chip family used by your reader or installed system. Send a photo of your current card / reader model and we will recommend the matching chip + test a sample before bulk order.
What certifications and quality control does RFIDAK apply to Combi Card Inlay? +
RFIDAK operates under ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), audited by SGS. Combi Card Inlay is subject to incoming material inspection, in-process QC at every lamination / bonding / encoding step, and 100% electrical performance testing before shipment. Products meet CE, FCC, RoHS and REACH as applicable by market. Full test reports are available on request for buyer audits.
Can Combi Card Inlay be pre-encoded or printed with my artwork before shipment? +
Yes. Combi Card Inlay can ship with UID range assignment, NDEF URL encoding (for NFC), sector-locked user data, serial numbering, and CMYK / silk-screen / UV printing of your artwork. Provide an AI/PDF artwork file at 300 dpi with 3 mm bleed and a chip-encoding spec; we return a digital proof for approval before production.
How does RFIDAK ship Combi Card Inlay internationally? +
RFIDAK ships Combi Card Inlay via DHL / FedEx / UPS (door-to-door, 3–5 days to most countries), air cargo (5–7 days for heavier orders), or sea freight (20–35 days for bulk over 500 kg). Standard Incoterms are EXW, FOB Shenzhen and DDP; choose based on customs clearance preferences. Commercial invoice, packing list and CoC / MSDS are included automatically.
How does RFIDAK handle repeat orders of Combi Card Inlay? +
For repeat buyers, RFIDAK locks tooling, artwork and chip encoding on file so subsequent POs ship faster — typically 5–10 business days for stock chip types at previously-run quantities. Price is adjusted transparently per chip market rate and FX movement; we flag any chip shortage (e.g., DESFire EV3) before quotation so the project plan stays realistic.
