You will soon broadcast the registered letter without a stamp
From May 1, 2021, it will not be possible to pay with stamps of nationwide and foreign registered letters. Poczta Polska will continue to issue stamps that will be used to pay ordinary letters, but also as collector's values. As expected by clients, Poczta Polska extends the date of introduction of the planned change of February 1 to May 1, 2021 in order to enable the use of already purchased stamps.
We remind you that Poczta Polska introduces the standardization of the fee for recording letter parcels, both in domestic and foreign trading. All registered letter shipments will be sent in an analogous way as packages or valuable shipments, i.e. without a postage stamp. It is enough for the customer to complete the confirmation of posting and transferred the parcel to send the employee by post. Confirmation of paying for the parcel will be applied by a Polish post employee on a dedicated R sticker, which will be expanded with a special field for this.
- Poczta Polska introduces changes that improve postal service. The traditional stamp on the registered list will perfectly replace the sticker with the strip code, is a modern and convenient solution for customers. We were ready to introduce them in February this year, but by responding to the expectations of customers, we translated the time of implementing a new solution by three months - says Andrzej Bodziony, vice president of Poczta Polska.
The lack of the need to stick stamps on letter shipments not only simplified the transmission process, but will also significantly reduce the service time at the postal facility. Foreign mail operators also use a similar solution, including Germany, France, Slovakia, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary.
Postal stamps can still be used to pay for unregistered letter shipments and for collector's purposes. Poczta Polska issues both circulation stamps, in millions of outlays, as well as occasional stamps, in smaller expenditure. Thanks to cooperation with artists, stamps enjoy great recognition of collectors in the country and in the world. Emission for lovers of philatelic often take the form of a sheet or block. Collecting postage stamps can be an interesting hobby, but by philatelists in the world is also treated as a capital deposit, because often sales of unique collections can translate into financial profits
