Quick Answer. The cost of a postage stamp today is 49 cents. This is a 3 cent rate increase from 2013. The rate was increased as of Jan. 26, 2014. The postage rate is determined based on mail class and package dimensions like weight and shape.
Once the USPS reaches that ceiling, it is required to roll back the 4.3% surcharge it had tacked on to first-class mail and commercial postage rates. That means that the cost of a stamp to mail a standard letter will decrease from 49 cents to 47 cents this Sunday. The price of sending a postcard will also drop by a penny, to 34 cents, while international mail will go down by a nickel, to $1.15 per letter instead of the current $1.20. While the price cut will be a boon for many consumers, itâs bad news for collectors and investors in so-called âForever stamps,â the generic stamps valued at whatever the current postage rate is no matter when they were purchased.
