Are forever stamps used for priority mail
In the United States, Forever Stamps are not specifically designated for Priority Mail. However, you can use Forever Stamps to mail a letter or package that weighs 1 ounce or less, as long as it meets the USPS's First-Class Mail requirements.
Here's the key:
- Forever Stamps are valid for First-Class Mail, which includes:
- Letters weighing 1 ounce or less
- Postcards
- Standard envelopes (up to 11.5 inches long, 6.125 inches wide, and 0.25 inches thick)
- Priority Mail, on the other hand, is a separate service that offers faster and more reliable delivery, but it requires a specific Priority Mail stamp or a postage label.
If you need to send a package that weighs more than 1 ounce or requires additional services like tracking, insurance, or signature confirmation, you'll need to use a Priority Mail stamp or a postage label.
To summarize:
- Use Forever Stamps for First-Class Mail (letters, postcards, and standard envelopes weighing 1 ounce or less).
- Use Priority Mail stamps or postage labels for Priority Mail services (faster and more reliable delivery, tracking, insurance, signature confirmation, etc.).
Hope that clears up any confusion!
