USPS will not increase stamp prices in January 2025

By Linn’s Staff

The U.S. Postal Service has announced that it will not raise stamp prices in January 2025.

Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s recommendation not to raise prices for market-dominant products such as first-class mail was accepted by the Postal Service’s board of governors, the USPS said in a Sept. 20 press release.

“Accordingly, the price of a stamp to mail a 1-[ounce] single-piece First-Class letter will not increase,” the Postal Service said.

“Our strategies are working and projected inflation is declining,” the press release quoted DeJoy as saying. “Therefore, we will wait until at least July before proposing any increases for market dominant services.”

“The Postal Service remains committed to continued cost saving measures and to keeping its products and services affordable,” the USPS said. “Only a handful of countries have a lower price for a domestic single-piece letter.”
