Postal Service Mailing Services Prices to Change on May 11
The Governors of the U.S. Postal Service have approved new prices for
mailing services, including a 2-cent increase in the price of a First-Class Mail stamp to 44 cents. Prices for
mailing services are reviewed annually and adjusted each May. The new prices will go into effect Monday,
May 11. Customers can continue to mail letters at today’s prices by purchasing the Forever Stamp before May
11. Forever Stamps were developed to help consumers ease the transition during price changes. Forever
Stamps do not have a denomination and will be honored whenever they are used with no need for additional
postage for a one-ounce letter mailing. On May 11 the price of the Forever Stamp will be 44 cents. The new
prices are available at www.usps.com/prices
