Welcome to the Fujairah
Stamps and Postal History Site

The independence of Fujairah was recognized in 1952 by the British government. Michel Stephen gave 22 November 22 1963 as the opening of the shaikhdom's post office, but that appears to be an unofficial date. Its first stamps were issued September 22, 1964. Fujairah agreed to join the United Arab Emirates on December 2, 1971. The UAE took over responsibility for postal operations on August 1, 1972. Fujairah's stamps may have been accepted for postage until April 1973.
