Taiwan Meter Stamp Type PO-A5
Taiwan · 2009 · Variable (NT$5 and NT$3.5 shown)
The meter stamp features the Chinese characters for 'Chunghwa Post' and 'Postage Paid', along with the denomination, date (e.g., 98.10.28), and a barcode. It simulates a postmark cancellation.
Meter stamps represent a modern and efficient method of postage payment, allowing for direct printing of postage onto mail. This stamp reflects Taiwan's adoption of such postal technologies in the late 2000s.
