Royal Mail have announced that a new 2021 stamp price increase will take place next year and will come into effect on the 1st of January.
Via an official statement published on their website and as detailed by the leading seller of stamps on Google – MyPostShop, the Royal Mail have announced that the price of First Class and Second Class Stamps will rise again next year, by 9p and 1p, respectively.
It follows a change in pricing for stamps which was put into place earlier this year and is thought to be a result of ongoing difficulties caused by the current Coronavirus pandemic.
This means that the price of a First Class Stamp will now be 85p rather than 76p, and a Second Class Stamp will cost 66p, rather than the current rate of 65p.
First Class Large is also going to increase, going up by 14p and Second Class Large will also rise by 8p.
As a result, First Class Large will now cost £1.29 instead of £1.15 and Second Class Large will be priced at the new rate of 96p rather than 88p.
This increases Club magazine postage by 32p per member per year.
