The Royal Mail have added barcodes to their regular stamps. After 31 July 2023, regular stamps without a barcode will no longer be valid. You can either use up these stamps before this deadline or swap them for the new barcoded ones.

Your non-barcoded stamps can be exchanged for the new barcoded version through the Stamp Swap Out scheme.
