Vietnam 1951 Postage Due Stamp

Vietnam · 1951 · 10c

This is one of the first postage due stamps issued by the State of Vietnam. The design is simple and functional, featuring a large numeral '10' indicating the amount due, framed by an ornate border. The text 'TIMBRE-TAXE' at the top and 'VIỆT-NAM' at the bottom clearly identify its purpose and origin.

Issued in 1951, this stamp represents the early postal administration of the State of Vietnam, established in 1949 as part of the French Union during the First Indochina War.
