Stamp Fulfillment Services will not make an automatic distribution to Post Offices. In order to allow Postmasters to order the 2024–2025 Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation stamp in quantities approximating customer demand, there is no minimum ordering quantity. Postmasters must review their previous year’s sales records to determine the appropriate number of the 2024–2025 Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation stamps to order. Postmasters must order sufficient quantities of Item 337100 to meet the expected demand for this item by stamp collectors, conservationists, and hunters. Post Offices may preorder these stamps before the first-day-of-issue through SFS Web at sfsweb.usps.gov/sfsweb. Post Offices must not sell the stamp before the first-day-of-issue.
The 2024–2025 $25.00 Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation PSA Pane of 20 will only be distributed by Stamp Fulfillment Services in Kansas City, MO, and by consignment from Amplex Corporation.
Before June 30, 2024, all sales and service associates must return unsold 2023–2024 Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation stamps (also known as Duck stamps) to the unit reserve.
