A special EFTA stamp has been issued by SwissPost to commemorate EFTAs 50th anniversary this year. "The full unifying function of EFTA, with its trading partners, will be revealed though a series of stamps", explained Swiss Post Chairman, Peter Hasler, in a press conference on 2 September.
The stamp was launched in Bern and jointly unveiled by Swiss President Doris Leuthard, EFTA Secretary-General Kåre Bryn, and the Chairman of the SwissPost Board of Directors Peter Hasler. The stamp, which is valid from 3 September, depicts an international and uniting EFTA. Switzerland has hosted the EFTA organisation since its beginning in 1960.
