Malaysia Postage Due Stamp

Malaysia · 1965 · 1c

This is the first postage due stamp issued by Malaysia after its formation. The design is simple and functional, featuring the denomination '1c' prominently in the center, with 'MALAYSIA' inscribed above and 'POSTAGE DUE' below. The stamp is printed in a single color, typically brown or a similar shade, emphasizing its utilitarian purpose.

Issued in 1965, this stamp represents the newly established postal system of Malaysia, which was formed in 1963 by the federation of Malaya, North Borneo, Sarawak, and Singapore. Postage due stamps were used to collect payment for insufficient postage from the recipient of a mail item.
