Sudan 1950 Postage Due Stamp

Sudan · 1950 · 2m

This is the first postage due stamp issued by Sudan. The design features the denomination '2m' (2 milliemes) prominently in the center, surrounded by an ornate, decorative frame. Text in both English ('SUDAN POSTAGE DUE') and Arabic script is included, reflecting the dual official languages of the Anglo-Egyptian administration.

Issued during the Anglo-Egyptian Condominium period, this stamp was used to collect insufficient postage from the recipient of a letter. It marks the establishment of a formal postage due system in Sudan.
