Congo (Kinshasa) Postage Due Stamp
Congo (Kinshasa) · 1965 · 10 F
This is a postage due stamp, indicated by the large numeral '10' and the text 'A PERCEVOIR' (To Be Collected) and 'TE BETALEN' (To Be Paid). The design is simple and functional, focusing on the amount owed. The country name 'REPUBLIQUE DU CONGO' is printed at the top.
Issued in 1965, this stamp reflects the period after the Congo Crisis as the newly independent nation, led by Mobutu Sese Seko, established its own postal systems. Postage due stamps were essential for collecting underpaid postage from recipients.
