The EUROPA stamps are a series of postage stamps issued by European postal administrations under the aegis of PostEurop, the trade association representing European public postal operators. Ireland, as a member of PostEurop, participates in this annual stamp issuing program. Here’s some information about Ireland’s EUROPA stamps:

  1. Purpose: EUROPA stamps promote cooperation in the postal sector, particularly in philately, and help build awareness of Europe’s common roots, culture, and history.
  2. Annual themes: Each year, a common theme is chosen for all participating countries. Ireland designs its stamps based on this theme.
  3. Design: While the theme is common, each country creates its own unique designs, often showcasing national culture, landmarks, or significant figures related to the theme.
  4. Collectibility: EUROPA stamps are popular among collectors due to their thematic consistency across countries and their limited annual releases.
  5. Irish designs: Ireland’s designs often incorporate elements of Irish culture, history, or natural beauty, depending on the year’s theme.
  6. Issuing authority: In Ireland, these stamps are issued by An Post, the country’s postal service provider.
  7. Release schedule: EUROPA stamps are typically released in the spring of each year.
  8. Denominations: The stamps are usually issued in values suitable for standard domestic and European postage rates.
