Starting July 14, a First-Class Forever stamp is set to go from 68 cents to 73 cents. Because Forever stamps hold their value forever (as their name suggests), you can buy as many as you want at the current price before the increased cost is implemented.
The U.S. Postal Service announced in 2021 that price hikes are needed to achieve financial stability as part of a 10-year plan.
This marks the second increase in stamp prices this year. In January, Forever stamps increased by 2 cents.
