This is a list of people on stamps of the United Kingdom. (The number in parentheses is the year of first appearance on a stamp.)
The general policy followed by the General Post Office and its successors, currently known as the Royal Mail, is that the only identifiable living people depicted on British stamps are the monarch and other members of the Royal Family (or people imminently marrying into it). This policy has only occasionally been inadvertently broken, e.g. in the 1967 issue commemorating the solo round the world voyage of Gipsy Moth IV a person appears as an unidentified blob on the yacht – although as there was only one person on board it must have been Francis Chichester! Similarly in the issue honouring the late Freddie Mercury, drummer Roger Taylor can be clearly seen in the background.
Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales, were married in St. Paul's Cathedral, London, England, on the 29th of July 1981.
