History
The issuer of Vietnamese stamps changed though time, as Vietnam was governed by a variety of states and administrations. The first stamps were introduced by the French colonial administration, only in 1945 stamps specifically for Vietnam were issued. During the decades of conflict and partitioning, stamps were issued by mutually hostile governments. The reunification of Vietnam in 1976 brought about a unified postal service.
