Singapore Postage Due Stamp

Singapore · 1971 · 1c

This definitive postage due stamp features a simple, functional design with the denomination '1c' prominently displayed in the center. The text 'SINGAPORE' is at the top, and 'POSTAGE DUE' is at the bottom, indicating its purpose for collecting insufficient postage from the recipient.

Issued in 1971, this was part of Singapore's first set of postage due stamps after becoming a fully independent republic in 1965. These stamps were a necessary part of the postal system's daily operations.
