Croatian postage stamps issued in the last twenty years have achieved high reputation and world recognition. This is proved by international awards – philatelic awards for the best and most beautiful stamps and awards for their artistic and design value. In the period from 1991 to the present day Croatian Post has worked hard and made great efforts to create a postage stamp as a product that would be one of the symbols of the state - the evidence of our existence in the international community of peoples. Croatian postage stamps have thus become an internationally accepted trademark in the world.
