Norfolk Island released their own independently-produced stamp issues from 10 June 1947 until 30 June 2016. Their last issue, a 7 June 2016 souvenir sheet commemorating the 160th Anniversary of the Arrival of the Pitcairn Islanders* , was valid for postage on Island mail for only 24 days before it, along with all other Norfolk decimal currency issues, was invalidated on 30 June 2016.
From 1 July 2016 until 19 September 2016, only Australian stamps were officially valid as postage on Norfolk Island mail. The new $1 and $2 "Birds" stamps (issued the next day) are inscribed "NORFOLK ISLAND AUSTRALIA". With this and future issues, both Norfolk Island Australia and Australian stamps are valid for postage throughout Australia, and at Norfolk Island.
This souvenir sheet was completely sold out (14 February 2017) after less than 5 months on sale (usually available for a minimum of 6 months).
