U.N. stationery surcharged
The United Nations Postal Administration will issue surcharged versions of U.N./New York postal stationery June 6 to meet new United States Postal Service rates that went into effect earlier this year, on Jan. 26.
A 3¢ surcharge was added to the 46¢ standard (No. 6¾) and large-size (No. 10) Circle and Dots envelopes (Scott U34-U35) to meet the 49¢ domestic rate. For the new $1.15 international letter rate, a 5¢ surcharge was added to the $1.10 Circle and Dots air letter sheet (Scott UC31). The original envelopes and air letter sheet were issued March 5, 2013.
