Letters (1 ounce) — 1-cent increase to 46 cents;

Letters additional ounces — unchanged at 20 cents

Postcards — 1-cent increase to 33 cents

New this year will be the First-Class Mail Global Forever stamp, a new international rate stamp. The Global Forever stamp offers a single price for any First-Class Mail International 1-ounce letter to any country in the world.
