All postal retail units must submit foreign-issued (exchanged) and U.S.-issued (redeemed) international reply coupons (IRCs) accepted through December 31, 2008, to the stamp distribution office (SDO) or stamp services center (SSC).
Redemption rates for foreign-issued exchanged IRCs are based on the round date stamp (on the right-hand side of the coupon) and the list below:
Redemption rates for unused U.S.-issued IRCs are the value of the printed price less $0.01 (when applicable, increase the value of the printed prices of unused U.S.-issued IRCs by the amount of additional postage affixed).
