Guyana became independent from Great Britain on 26 May 1966 and began producing its own stamps as an independent nation from that date.
[ Rossiter, Stuart & John Flower. ''The Stamp Atlas''. London: Macdonald, 1986, p. 167. ] Previously the country was
British Guiana and
had printed stamps. In 1969, some issues were put on the market cancelled to order in such a way as to be indistinguishable from genuine postally used copies.
Between 2010 and 2013, Guyana issued many
provisional surcharges.
