The United States Postal Service (USPS) will raise prices for its Forever stamps and other products on Sunday, July 13. The price increase is expected to be 5 cents, making the new cost of a Forever stamp $78 cents.
According to USPS Senior Public Relations Representative Marti Johnson, the price adjustments are needed to achieve financial stability as part of the organization’s “Delivering for America” 10-year plan. This move will also increase mailing service product prices by 7.4%.
The changes include an increase in prices for domestic postcards ($2.56 to $3.62), letters (69 cents to 74 cents), and international postcards ($1.65 to $1.70). Additionally, the price of sending a single letter by air will rise from 28 cents to 29 cents.
USPS had previously confirmed that the commission had approved a price increase, but Johnson attributed it to prudent pricing implementation rather than a major overhaul. The new prices will bring costs closer to those of other comparable foreign postal services.
