I am guessing you want to mail a letter to some foreign location from the US. If so, the rate is now 98 cents. You can buy a 98-cent stamp at a post office. If all you have is "forever" stamps with the liberty bell on them , you would have to use three and overpay since they are worth 44 cents each .

(10-cents stamps are also available at the post office and two 44-cent stamps plus a 10 give the exact amount. )

Can you use a forever stamp on mail to Europe?

yes, you can-- they are worth 42 cents each and the rate to Europe is 94 cents for up to one ounce. So you would two of them plus ten cents (or more )worth of other stamps.You use three forever stamps, but would be wasting 32 cents.After May 11, the rate goes up to 98 cents, but the forever stamps will be worth 44 cents, so 2 of them plus ten cents will still work. They make 10 cent stamps, so if you send a lot of letters to Europe you might want to get some to keep on hand.Despite the note below, you can. MY information comes from the UPSS official web site;http://www.usps.com/mailpro/2008/marapril/page8.htmPossibly the rules have changed.No, you cannot. The lack of a face value means they are not valid under the Postal Rules of the Universal Postal Union. The post office can provide valid postage for your foreign mail.
