Postal Stamp “Black Forest” - Key Highlights

The event saw participation from the soldiers of the “Black Forest” brigade, representatives from “Ukrposhta,” activists, business leaders, and philatelists.

“This stamp is not merely about philately; it is a recognition of our work. We operate quietly, but when artillery strikes accurately, it embodies a part of our mission,” stated the brigade's soldiers.

The stamp has a limited print run of only 1340 sets, which include the stamp and an artistic envelope.

You can purchase the stamp on the “Ukrposhta” website or at postal offices.

Special Cancellation of the Postal Set “Military Law Enforcement Service”

A special cancellation of a limited postal set entitled “Military Law Enforcement Service” took place at the Main Post Office in Kyiv. The design of the set was created by Colonel Volodymyr Potapov.

The set includes a sheet of 28 stamps and an artistic envelope.

Previously, “Ukrposhta” continued the “Ukrainian Folk Clothing” series and released a new postal set dedicated to the traditional attire of the regions of Kursk, Belgorod, and Kuban.

In addition to the stamps featuring folk clothing, the postal set includes two “First Day” envelopes and a card titled “Overview Map of Ukrainian Lands”.

The company also kicked off 2025 with the release of a new stamp called “I’m Fine :)”, dedicated to the resilience of Ukrainians.

Earlier, “Ukrposhta” launched a new charity stamp titled “USYK. The World Loves the Strong”, honoring Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk.
