Stamp Sales Paused Until March

20 January 2026

Government, Post Office, Press Release

Please be advised that stamp sales will be temporarily paused to allow the Post Office team to catch up on processing times.

Over the Christmas period, our team has been operating with a reduced number of staff, which has resulted in a backlog of orders. Pausing stamp sales for a short period will enable us to process existing requests efficiently and restore normal service levels.

Stamp sales will resume in March, following the completion of our telecoms transition, when our Post Office team will have improved system capabilities, allowing us to respond to orders in a timely manner.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this period and thank you for your continued support.
