Global Forever® Stamp

The Global Forever stamp can be used to mail a postcard or 1 oz letter-size mailpiece anywhere in the world, regardless of when the stamp was purchased and how prices change in the future. To help you distinguish the difference between the domestic and international forever stamps, the international version will always be round and will always bear the words “Global Forever.”
