As always, International Mail Service works to help send international postcards and letters at discounted rates. This has always been the case for IMS, and it continues to drive our business. We want to share this in lieu of the recent announcement of a proposed increase in pricing by the USPS. At the beginning of April, the U. S. Postal Service filed notice with the Postal Regulatory Commission. This notice detailed a mailing services price change that they plan to take into effect on July 14, 2024. The proposed adjustments, approved by the governors of the Postal Service, would raise mailing services product prices approximately 7.8 percent.
USPS Proposed pricing changes
Product | Current Prices | Planned Prices |
Letters (1 oz.) | 68 cents | 73 cents |
Letters (metered 1 oz.) | 64 cents | 69 cents |
Domestic Postcards | 53 cents | 56 cents |
International Postcards | $1.55 | $1.65 |
International Letter (1 oz.) | $1.55 | $1.65 |
USPS plans to implement changes like this as part of their Delivering for America 10-year plan. To see more of this Mailing Services filing, you can find it under Docket No. R2024-2.
