2024Europa - Underwater Nature - Presentation Pack

Europe’s cooperating postal companies have been issuing stamps with a common theme for more than 65 years. A design competition has been associated with this issue since 2002: the EUROPA stamp best design competition. The competition is organised by PostEurop, the organisation in which all European national postal operators cooperate. The theme for the common European stamp issue for 2024 is ‘Underwater fauna & flora’. Following this theme, PostNL will issue the Underwater Nature stamp sheet on 13 May 2024. The stamps bear denomination ‘international 1’ for post weighing up to 20 grams with an international destination. A sheet of 6 stamps costs €9.90. The theme ‘Underwater fauna & flora’ was originally slated for 2023 but was pushed back because PostEurop chose the theme ‘Peace, the Highest Value of Humanity’ that year due to the war in Ukraine.
