Additional elements such as envelopes, stylised electronic signals, and a blue background signify communication, innovation, and technological progress.

This joint release showcases the collective efforts of Arab postal entities to embrace modernisation and enhance regional connectivity. It also highlights the importance of collaboration in promoting sustainable, inclusive development through advanced postal infrastructure.

Emirates Post said the stamp is both a tribute to the sector’s history and a symbol of its forward-looking vision for a digitally connected Arab world.
