About us

The first Åland stamps were issued on 1 March 1984, and approximately 15-17 stamp motifs appear every year. “Åland stamps must describe the nature, culture, history, industry and society of the island province and be a medium for the promotion of Åland.” (Quote from the Stamp policy of Åland Post).

Stamp Committee and Stamp Advisary Board

The Stamp Committee of Åland Post determines the annual stamp issuing program, appoints artist and selects motifs based on proposals from both the Stamp Advisory Board and the general public.

The Stamp Advisory Board consists of experienced and selected representatives from different sectors of Åland society and serves as ambassadors for Åland stamps. The board meets once a year. 

The Stamp Committee meets regularly and consists of Johan Sundblom (CEO), Linda Håkans (Business Area Manager Stamps & Postal services) and Johanna Finne (Head of Stamps & Communications).

Åland Post Stamps

The Stamps unit has its premises at the post terminal, close to the Mariehamn Airport, and is divided into two sections, production and sales. The artisanal production of some 200 different stamp products is performed by the staff, who also processes and packs subscription deliveries and casual orders and serves customers in Swedish, Finnish, English and German.
