How to use old postage

You can still use older domestic stamps that display values instead of the letter P that PERMANENT stamps display. If the added value of your stamps is equal to or greater than the current stamp rate, you can use them to send your mail.

Get it there faster

A Canada Post letter carrier scans two Xpresspost prepaid envelopes to update their tracking information.
