Postal Administrations and Philatelic Bureaus

Links are to main philatelic page or web shop, if possible, or alternatively to the postal administrations’ home page. The language is English unless otherwise noted in parenthesis. Some countries’ postal services do not have credible links and are not listed. Some postal administrations offer stamps at face value on the internet not only through their own websites, but through philatelic agents. Stamps from smaller postal administrations may be available only through philatelic agents. Philatelic agents like the Intergovernmental Philatelic Corporation, Philatelic Collector Inc., and WOPA+ may represent dozens of countries, large and small, however their selections may be more limited than what is available if a postal administration also offers its wares through its own website. Philatelic Collector Inc., sells only stamps of various Pacific islands. Links to smaller postal administrations are often very slow or only work intermittently!
