Can you still use old unused stamps to mail letters even if they are about 4 plus years old or older - will the post office reject the letter and send it back to youdo?

Yes, you can use them. No, the post office will not reject them. But be careful. That doesn't mean that a stamp that was worth enough to mail a letter 5 years ago is still enough. Rates have gone up. Look at the stamp, see how much it's worth, and make sure you stick enough money on a letter to add up to today's rates. Worst part about old stamps: The glue may be shot. You may have to add a drop of glue to the back to make them stick.

∙ 9y agoYes, you can use old stamps to mail a letter. However stamps that old had a particular value and it is likely they will be worth less than what it currently costs to mail a letter. It costs 49 cents to mail a letter, so if the value of the stamp is less than 49 cents, you would need to use multiple stamps on the envelope. The post office sells stamps in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 cent denominations.
The letter will be rejected and sent back if the amount of value of the stamps is under 49 cents.

Yes, you can still use old unused stamps to mail letters even if they are several years old. The post office will not reject the letter as long as the postage value on the stamps matches the current rate for mailing. However, if the postage amount is not enough, the post office may return the letter to you for additional postage.

It depends on where you are mailing the letter from. If from the USA, it would take two stamps.
