Immigrate to Latvia and pay attention to life in Latvia: In 2014, Latvia joined the Eurozone, necessitating some changes. These changes also pertain to postage stamps. On January 2, the Latvian Post issued the first series of euro stamps. This series is called "Flowers", and the artist is Irts Grīva. The series consists of six stamps, each with a different price. On the same day, the Latvian Post also published new envelopes and designed new cancellations.
If Chinese friends living in Latvia plan to send a letter, the following explains what price of stamps to buy for mailing a letter domestically and internationally:
1. A €0.03 stamp must be combined with other stamps (such as €0.47 or €0.57 stamps). This is the price for mailing a letter within Latvia;
2. A €0.78 stamp is for mailing a letter to EU countries;
3. €0.85 and €1.39 stamps are for mailing to countries outside the EU.
This series of stamps is valid for one year, and a new series will be released on January 1, 2015. During 2014, the country plans to issue 34 types of stamps, each depicting significant events in Latvian history and culture.
