On April 10th the United States Postal Service (USPS) filed their proposed mid-year price changes with the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC). These proposed rates will be the second increase of the year and are set to take place at midnight on July 9, 2023.
Most notably, the price of a first-class stamp will raise by 3 cents, but there don’t appear to be as many changes as there have been in past price increases.
Here is a quick look at some of the prices that will be changing which will have an impact on LetterStream customers:
- First Class Mail going up from $0.63 to $0.66
- International Rates going up from $1.45 to $1.50
- First-class postcards going up from $0.63 to $0.66
Sorry, this year we didn’t find any fees that went down for the products that we offer.

LetterStream will be implementing these changes on the weekend of July 9th, so be sure to plan ahead and get your jobs paid for in our system before then to lock in the lower prices!
