Azores and Madeira

From 1862 to 1864 the blue revenue stamps were used in the Azores and Madeira. However in 1864

the value of the Reis differed between the two and Madeira stamps were changed to a red colour.

Around 1880 the Madeira Reis was again equal and there was no need for different stamps.

Historically, the adjacent islands were strongly linked to mainland Portugal, sharing the same postal

rates and fiscal laws, Azores comprising three administrative districts and Madeira one. The following

issues are consequently presented together in the following section.
