If you are a president, as soon as you die you can get your face on a US stamp, otherwise, even Elvis had to wait 10 years.

There is a shortcut though.

For a fee, a "dunes" country will put you on a stamp.

They are available at any US Post office. In the not too distant past it was a virtual ground rule that Tobacco Shops were (required) to sell stamps and many had large mail boxes outside their doors. this tradition originated in Paris, France. The tobacco trade was reined-in to provide postage stamps and in some cases function as almost a second-class post office. They even called Tobacco shops Bureau de Tabac ( lit tobacco office or bureau) which suggests something official.

It depends on where you live. In the US, the first criteria is that you must be dead. The US doesn't allow living persons to be pictured on postage stamps. In most cases a number of years has to go by before it is allowed.
