Stamp prices to go up
Our stamp prices are still amongst the best value in Europe
Our new stamp prices will take effect from 23 March 2020.
A First Class stamp will increase by 6p from 70p to 76p. A Second Class stamp will increase by 4p, from 61p to 65p.
Press play to hear from Stephen Agar, managing director of letters.
We have considered these changes very carefully. Royal Mail understands that many companies and households are finding it hard in the current economic environment.
But our business environment is challenging and these changes are necessary to help ensure we can sustain the one-price-goes-anywhere Universal Service.
Our stamp prices are still amongst the best value in Europe compared to other postal operators. The European average for 1st Class letters (0-100g) is £1.05.
