Start the document at the finished size—88.9 × 50.8 mm—and add the bleed your printer specifies outside that edge. A common 3 mm bleed produces a 94.9 × 56.8 mm artwork canvas. Keep type, logos, folds, and other critical details inside the trim line; a safety margin is not the same thing as bleed.
Pixel dimensions only become meaningful when paired with a resolution. At 300 DPI, this format is 1,050 × 600 pixels. Changing that number in an export dialog without resampling does not add image detail—it only changes the declared physical scale.
Business Card (US) belongs to the Other group. Its 1:1.75 proportion differs from the ISO √2 family, so moving an existing layout to A-series paper can change margins, line length, and page count.
