French Indochina Postage Due Stamp

French Indochina · 1904 · 1c

This is a postage due stamp from French Indochina, featuring a large numeral '1' indicating the value of 1 centime. The design is simple and functional, with the text 'CHIFFRE-TAXE' (Postage Due) at the top and 'INDO-CHINE' at the bottom, all enclosed within an ornate frame.

Issued in 1904, this stamp was used to collect postage fees that were underpaid by the sender. It reflects the French colonial administration's postal system in Southeast Asia during the early 20th century.
