Postal rates (1917–1948)

edit

During the British Mandate over Palestine about 160 post offices operated, some only for a few months, others for the entire length of the period. Upon the advance of allied forces in 1917 and 1918 initially Field Post Offices and Army Post Offices served the local civilian population. Some of the latter offices were converted to Stationery Army Post Offices and became civilan post offices upon establishment of the civial administratioon. In 1919 fifteen offices existesd, rising to about 100 by 1939, and about 150 by the end of the Mandate in May 1948. With most of the Jerusalem General Post Office archives destroyed, research depends heavily on philaelists recoding distinct postmarks and dates of their use.


After occupation by allied forces in 1917, basic postage was free for civilians. Registration fees and parcels had be be franked using British or Indian stamps. Once the EEF stamps printed in Cairo came on sale mail to overseas destinations had to be paid for from 10 February 1918, and from 16 February 1918 also mail to the then occupied territories and Egypt.

The structure of postal rates followed broadly British practice and new services, like airmail and express delivery, were added over the years. From 1926 reduced rates applied for mail to Britain and Ireland, and from 1 March 1938 to 4 September 1939, Palestine was part of the All Up Empire airmail rates system.
