Tuvalu Philatelic Bureau
The Tuvalu Philatelic Bure is a stamp collector's dream come true. Whether you collect stamps or not, a visit to this intriguing attraction will introduce you to a priceless collection of imprints. The Tuvalu Philatelic Bureau is the government agency responsible for issuing new stamps and first-day covers, which are sold to stamp collectors all over the world. Since Tuvalu's independence in 1976, stamp sales have been a major source of revenue for the island and government. However, in recent years, such revenue has decreased dramatically.
The Tuvalu Philatelic Bureau is unique in that it displays a wide range and amazing variety of Tuvalu stamps dating back hundreds of years. These stamps, which were organized by a group of lovely ladies, contain a wealth of information and fascinating stories about the Tuvaluan conventions, culture, and way of life. These stamps could also serve as a lovely keepsake for your loved ones.
