Postage stamps and postal history of the Nyasaland Protectorate


On 6 July 1907 the British Central Africa Protectorate became the Nyasaland Protectorate and its first stamps were issued on 22 July 1908.
Stamps were marked Nyasaland Protectorate and later just Nyasaland. From 1953 to 1963 Nyasaland was united with Northern Rhodesia and Southern Rhodesia and used stamps of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. Nyasaland resumed issuing stamps in 1963 before becoming independent. After independence in 1964, stamps were marked Malawi.
