A special postage stamp for the opening of Expo 2025 in Japan
On the occasion of Expo 2025 in Osaka, Poczta Polska prepared a special philatelic emission that is an artistic contribution to the promotion of Poland as an innovative, open and full of creative energy. The broadcast was created in cooperation with the Polish Investment and Trade Agency (PAIH).
The emission includes: postage stamp, collector's envelope on the first day of circuit (FDC) and occasional date stamp. The stamp presents a modern block of the Polish pavilion, inspired by waves spreading on the surface of the water. Its dynamic form symbolizes intellectual and cultural energy that drives the development of our country. All elements of the emission are connected by the motif of "waves of creativity" - an image of creative force that reflects the potential of Poland.
The slogan of Poland's presence at EXPO 2025 - "Poland. Heritage That Drives The Future" / "Poland. Heritage that drives the future" - appears on both the stamp and fdc envelope. It emphasizes the importance of our historical and cultural heritage as a source of contemporary innovations. The whole is complemented by a date stamp, inspired by the sight of the bird's flight pavilion.
Expo 2025 - World Cooperation and Innovation Center
The Expo exhibition is one of the most important economic and cultural events in the world. From 1851, global exhibitions have been a space for presentations of achievements in science, technology, culture and art. This year's EXPO will take place from April 13 to October 13, 2025, on the artificial island of Yumeshima located in the bay of Osaka in Japan. The organizers provide for the participation of over 28 million people, of which about 3.5 million are foreign tourists. Expo will be divided into three main zones: the world of pavilions, the world of water and the world of greenery. The latest technologies such as air taxis, hydrogen -powered ships and a fully electronic payment system will be presented during the Expo. This is the first world exhibition based solely on non -cash transactions.
Poland on the Expo - heritage in a modern edition
The participation of Poland in EXPO 2025 is a continuation of the long -term presence of our country at world exhibitions, dating back to over 150 years. This is a unique opportunity to present the achievements of the Polish economy, science, technology and culture of international audiences. As part of accompanying events, including Polish Day, solemn celebration of the May 3 Constitution Day and two Polish-Japanese economic forums. These initiatives are aimed at strengthening economic and investment cooperation with partners from Asia and other regions of the world. It is worth noting that the Polish pavilion was awarded by the editors of "The New York Times" and was on the list of the 25 most interesting places to see during the EXPO 2025. The program of promotion of the Polish economy focuses on six strategic sectors: agri-food (including Agritech), medical and pharmaceutical, cosmetic, green technologies (with special emphasis hydrogen), gaming industry, IT and FinTech sectors. World exhibitions have always been a space for international dialogue and exchange of ideas. Expo 2025 continues this tradition, giving the countries the opportunity to present its achievements and promote universal values.
Poczta Polska - thanks to the issue of an occasional stamp - not only commemorates Poland's participation in this prestigious event, but also strengthens the image of Poland as a modern and creative state, which proudly nourishes its heritage and remains faithful to its traditions.
