Maldives Postal Services Begin with Overprinted Ceylon Stamps

Maldives Post marks its 119th anniversary, tracing its origins back to September 9, 1906, when postal services commenced nationwide. On this date, the islands first began using Ceylon stamps that were overprinted with 'MALDIVES'. This marked a significant step in the development of a distinct postal identity for the Maldives.
