An Post 'N' Stamp - No Value Indicated (NVI)

Ireland · 2024 · N (National)

This definitive stamp features a stylized illustration of a hibiscus flower, a common design element in modern Irish definitives. The 'N' denomination indicates it covers the standard national postage rate, a system known as No Value Indicated (NVI). This allows the stamp to remain valid for its purpose even if postal rates change.

Ireland introduced NVI stamps to simplify postage for the public and the postal service, adapting to fluctuating postal rates without needing to constantly issue new denominations.
