How many stamps do I use to send a letter from New York to Japan? -

I live in New York and I want to send a regular, standard letter to Japan. I have an address and everything. All I need to know is how many stamps do I use?

If it is a normal letter you need international postage stamp and 2 will usually suffice, but since the postal rate went up to 40cents, it may be more. If youre mailing anything thicker than a normal letter its best to go to the post office have it weighed and let the service stamp on a postage. If you have a package you have to put a customs sticker on it. http://ircalc.usps.gov/

Take the letter to the post office and have them weigh it. Cost will depend on weight. Should be less than $1.00.

Do you have regular, US postage stamps. (meaning,. 1 stamp would send your letter anywhere is the US , right? Then, put 3 on the letter and mail it.. You will be overpaying by a few cents but it saves a trip to the post office.

Ask at your nearest Post Office. The cost depends on the weight of the item (how many sheets of paper inside the envelope)

Go to USPS.com and they may have it online the price, if not call the Postal 1800 number and I am sure you can get the current price. cheers.

It is not how many stamps you have to stick on an envelope. It is how much will it cost to post a letter to Japan? You just drop in at your local post office with your letter and they will weigh it and tell you how much it will cost.
