How many stamps are needed to mail a manila envelope

The number of stamps needed to mail a Manila envelope depends on the weight and size of the envelope, as well as the destination and type of mail service used. Here are some general guidelines:

• For a standard-sized Manila envelope (6.125 x 3.5 inches) weighing up to 1 ounce, you would need:
  • 1 first-class stamp (currently $0.55) for domestic mail (within the United States)
  • 1 international first-class stamp (currently $1.20) for international mail
• For a Manila envelope weighing 1-2 ounces, you would need:
  • 2 first-class stamps (currently $1.10) for domestic mail
  • 2 international first-class stamps (currently $2.40) for international mail
• For a Manila envelope weighing 2-3 ounces, you would need:
  • 3 first-class stamps (currently $1.65) for domestic mail
  • 3 international first-class stamps (currently $3.60) for international mail

Keep in mind that these are general guidelines, and the actual postage required may vary depending on the specific circumstances of your mail. You can use the USPS Postage Calculator tool on the United States Postal Service website to get an accurate estimate of the postage needed for your specific mail piece.

It's also worth noting that if you're mailing a large or heavy envelope, you may need to use a larger envelope or a flat rate envelope, which can be more expensive. Additionally, if you're mailing a package that requires special handling or insurance, you may need to use a different type of mail service or purchase additional insurance.
