Royal mail form to exchange old stamps

You're looking to exchange your old stamps for new ones!

Royal Mail offers a service called "Stamp Exchange" or "Stamp Swap" where you can exchange your used stamps for new ones. Here's how to do it:

Eligibility:

• You must be a UK resident to participate in the Stamp Exchange.
• You can exchange stamps that are in good condition, with no tears, creases, or damage.
• You can exchange stamps that are no longer valid for postage.

How to exchange your stamps:

1. Gather your stamps: Collect the stamps you want to exchange and sort them by country or theme.
2. Check the value: Check the value of your stamps using a stamp catalog or online resources. Make sure they are still valid for exchange.
3. Fill out the form: Download and complete the Royal Mail Stamp Exchange form (available on the Royal Mail website). You can also request a form by calling Royal Mail's customer service number (03457 740 740).
4. Attach the stamps: Attach the stamps to the form, making sure they are securely attached and not damaged.
5. Send the form: Send the completed form and stamps to Royal Mail's Stamp Exchange address:
   • Royal Mail Stamp Exchange
   • PO Box 179
   • Bristol BS99 7NA
6. Wait for your new stamps: Royal Mail will process your exchange and send you new stamps in exchange for your used ones.

Tips and limitations:

• You can exchange stamps for new ones of the same value or a higher value, but not for a lower value.
• You can exchange stamps for a maximum of £50 worth of new stamps per year.
• Some stamps, like commemorative stamps or special edition stamps, may not be eligible for exchange.
• Royal Mail reserves the right to reject stamps that are damaged, defaced, or not in good condition.

Remember to check the Royal Mail website for any updates or changes to the Stamp Exchange service before sending in your stamps.
