Australia recently welcomed its millionth refugee since the end of World War II.
To mark this significant milestone, Australia Post has released a commemorative stamp in June to coincide with Refugee Week 2026 (14–20 June).
Designed by Jason Watts, the stamp celebrates Australia’s long history of welcoming people from around the world and recognises the important role refugees have played in shaping our country.
The stamp has been created in partnership with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the Refugee Council of Australia.
Featuring the UNHCR logo, the design offers a graphic interpretation of many people coming together as one, signifying the unique journeys of refugees seeking a better life in Australia.
The stamp will be issued as a $1.70 stamp and will be available in June at participating Post Offices and online shop.
