Embrace the Year of the Snake with SingPost’s Zodiac Stamps
6 January 2025
Singapore, 6 January 2025 - Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) today unveiled a set of stamps to usher in the new Year of the Snake, and these stamps will go on sale from 10 January 2025.
As the sixth animal in the Chinese Zodiac, those born in the Year of the Snake are known for their capability, curiosity, and determination. We are excited to announce that the talented Ms. Lim An-Ling, an established animator and illustrator who has been collaborating with SingPost since 2013, has designed our entire Snake stamp series.
Snake Series Collection
The set of stamps comes in two denominations: 1st Local (52 cents) and $2.
The Pre-cancelled First Day Cover affixed with the complete set of stamps and cancelled with a special Zodiac Snake postmark will be sold at $4.05. The Presentation Pack containing both stamps is priced at $5.10.
Postage labels bought at the General Post Office will feature a limited-run snake-themed Chinese New Year design from 10 January 2025.
SingPost has also produced a special Collector’s Sheet comprising a commemorative $10 stamp. This Collector’s Sheet is designed by Mr Andy Koh, who has designed several stamp issues since 2000. The design of the Collector’s Sheet is a modern take on traditional Chinese paper cutting.
The Collector’s Sheet is priced at $19.15, together with a set of eight red packets in a folder.
All snake-themed stamps and gift products are available for sale from 10 January 2025 at all philatelic stores, General Post Office, as well as online at shop.singpost.com, while stocks last.
