To note the yellow 'Priority' stamp on the left of this cover, indicating that it was sent via Priority Mail. This service is more expensive but faster than regular delivery, costing €1.40 for a 20g international letter compared to €1.20 for the Economic option.

Latvia: The 150th Anniversary of the Universal Postal Union (UPU)

In 2024, the Universal Postal Union (UPU) celebrates its 150th anniversary. On 9 October 1874, 22 countries gathered to sign the Treaty of Bern, creating the General Postal Union, which would later become known as the Universal Postal Union. A century and a half later, the UPU now unites the postal networks of 192 member countries, having realized its founders’ vision of establishing a single postal territory to serve people everywhere.
