Congratulations – 2026 / Condolences – 2026

Two Austrian stamps 2026: Congratulations with party motifs and In Silent Mourning featuring a calla flower, with matching special postmarks.

With the congratulatory or condolence stamp, you always have an appropriate stamp at hand to frank correspondence in a fitting and thoughtful way.

Colourful illustrations on the congratulatory stamp create a cheerful mood. A cake, gifts and vibrant decorations are popular elements of any celebration, whether it is a birthday, a wedding, passing an exam or another joyful occasion. This stamp is ideal for sending invitations to a celebration or for franking a warm message of congratulations when you are unable to attend in person.
A single flower adorns the simple yet elegant condolence stamp: a white calla lily with a beautifully curved, graceful bloom. It symbolises love, beauty and purity, but also immortality and eternal life, which is why it is used both in wedding bouquets and in funeral floristry. This dignified stamp, bearing the words “In silent mourning”, is suitable for death notices or messages of condolence.
