parcel stamp
In philately a parcel stamp is a stamp specifically issued to pay the fee for the transport of a parcel through the postal system and usually marked as such. It is to be distinguished from a postage stamp used to pay the cost of posting a parcel, although there may no practical distinction as far as the sender is concerned. Parcel stamps issued by governments have the same status in philately as postage stamps, but parcel stamps issued by private railway companies or road carriers are regarded as cinderella stamps and many parcel stamps are also railway stamps.
The ''international'' parcel post service was established by the Universal Postal Union on 1 October 1881 (Great Britain, India, The Netherlands and Persia, 1 April 1882), following the agreement of 1880 in Paris.〔"The Universal Postal Union: Its History and Progress. A paper read before the Leeds Philatelic Society by E. Egly, President, on December 19th, 1905." in ''The London Philatelist'', Vol. XV, No. 169, January 1906, pp. 2-11.〕〔(The 1880 UPU Parcel Post Convention and Swedish Foreign Parcel Mail, 1881 - 1921 ) by Sören Andersson in ''The Posthorn'', Scandinavian Collectors Club, May 2002.

==Belgium==
Belgium has a long history of railway parcel stamps with the first being issued for the Belgian State Railways in 1879.〔Mackay, James. ''Stamp Collecting: Philatelic Terms Illustrated''. 4th edition. London: Stanley Gibbons, 2003, p. 99. ISBN 0-85259-557-3〕 Numerous different series have been issued since then.
