The Director-General of the Armenian Postal Service "HayPost"
CJSC informs:
HayPost CJSC has learned that in 2007 at least 51 different illegal
postage stamps have been printed, issued and are being sold both in
and outside the Republic of Armenia, which resulted in significant
losses for HayPost. HayPost has applied to UPU to invalidate these
stamps. Details on these stamps can be found at
These illegal stamps are issued in the name of "Armenia" and are
not a valid means for postage. HayPost CJSC strongly denounces and
condems this practice.
Any mail item that bears an illegal postage stamp will be immediately
confiscated by the Postal service, regardless its destination or
contents.
Currently, all post offices in Armenia have valid and official stamps
for postage in stock, and these stamps will be sold in the case of
clients need stamps to send letters or parcels.
Official and legal stamps bear the words POST and ARMENIA.
Any other postage stamp is considered invalid or illegal.
