Over the past 20 years, the magazine has contributed to promoting Vietnamese and international stamps and organising stamp collecting efforts across the country.

Vietnam Stamp Magazine has published 123 issues, as well as two special issues: ‘Collecting stamps of the national defence wars’ and ‘Collecting stamps of Francophone countries’.

Over the past two decades, Vietnam Stamp Magazine has been honoured with many noble commendations including the Labour Medal, third class and certificates from ministries, departments, the Vietnam Journalists' Association and the Vietnam Stamp Association.

On the occasion, the Ministry of Information and Communications also presented certificates to a number of the magazine’s writers and officials for their meritorious contributions.
