Frequently Asked Questions
Travel Stamps are colorfully illustrated collectible vinyl decals for everywhere you travel. We produce stamps predominately for public lands, states, cities, towns and popular attractions across the United States. Our goal is to create the most comprehensive souvenir network for you to preserve and relive a lifetime of memories in one attractive and convenient place.
Are they real postage stamps?
No. While we designed our decals in the shape of postage stamps, they are NOT postage, they are souvenir decals and unfortunately would make for very ineffective - and large - postage. A Travel Stamp is about 4x the size of a Forever Stamp.
Why are some stamps $2.99 and others $3.99?
The decision to raise our prices was not taken lightly but became necessary after years of rising production costs and requests from our park partners who are in need of more support from their visitor center gift shops. To make the transition smoother, we launched an automatic multi-stamp discount program, with volume discounts ranging from 10%-25% along with a phased approach. We are selling through the $2.99 stamps we have on-hand, but once they are sold out and restocked, they will be $3.99. Volume discounts apply to all stamps, whether they are $2.99 or $3.99.
The Automatic Bundle Discount isn't populating in my cart, how do I get it?
Sometimes the automatic discount will time-out, or not recalculate if you add/remove stamps after starting the checkout process. If the automatic discount goes away, you can enter the appropriate discount code manually:
- 10OFF10 (10% off 10-24 stamps)
- 15OFF25 (15% off 25-39 stamps)
- 20OFF40 (20% off 40-54 stamps)
- 25OFF55 (25% off 55+ stamps)
What are the dimensions of a Travel Stamp?
The entire rectangular sheet is 2 7/8” wide and 6” tall
The Stamp itself is 1 ¾” wide and 2 1/8” tall
The text sticker at the bottom is 2 7/8” wide and 1 ¾” tall
What do I do with the bottom text sticker?
If you would like to collect our interpretive text stickers alongside our illustrated stamps, there is space to do this in our Album+ and Journal spiral-bound Collection Books and our Collection Booklet. You may also “Build Your own Binder” to accommodate the text stickers. Alternatively, you do not have to save them at all. If interpretation isn’t your thing, give it a read, remove it and recycle the backing paper. Album & Guide books DO NOT have designated spaces for the bottom text sticker - interpretive text about each destination is already printed in the Album & Guides.
I started collecting the National Park stamps in an Album & Guide, but now I want to switch to the Binder or Booklet. Do I have re-purchase the stamps I already placed in my Album & Guide?
Please contact us, we address these situations on a case-by-case basis.
Where do the “I Saw Them All” or "Achievement" stamps go?
Our Achievement stamps were designed to be placed in our Album & Guides. Each Album & Guide has space for its own regional achievement stamps and final “I Saw Them All” stamp. The Pocket Albums, Album+ and Journals each have a space for one small “I Saw Them All” stamp, but no spaces for regional achievement stamps. There are not specific “I Saw Them All” pages for the Binder or Booklet, but you may use the blank pages for this purpose if you so choose.
How many pages fit in the Build Your Own Binder?
We recommend keeping no more than 50 pages in your binder. All our pages are double sided and remember to leave room for photos, maps and other memorabilia.
How many stamps fit in the Collection Booklet?
26. For each stamp there is a line in the Directory, a space for the stamp’s corresponding text sticker, date visited, and blank space to write, draw, or paste memorabilia.
How many booklets fit in the Collection Binder?
5 booklets fit comfortably in the Binder, but will differ depending on how many other pages/dividers/memorabilia you have added.

How long does it take to receive my order?
We typically fill orders the same day or next business day.

International delivery differs depending on the country and delivery method (first class/priority).
Why haven’t I received my International order?
Some countries require an additional “duty” on merchandise over a certain dollar amount. If you placed an international order and tracking says your order has arrived in your country but hasn’t been delivered for several days or weeks, check with your local post office, they may be holding it.
