This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of Tasmania (originally known as Van Diemen's Land), a former British colony that is now part of Australia.
The first stamps of Van Diemen's Land were issued on 1 November 1853.
The first stamps inscribed Tasmania were issued in January 1858.
Until 1896, all postage stamps portrayed Queen Victoria. In 1899, a pictorial set was issued and was reprinted several times until 1912. Tasmania's last issue was in 1913.
This model is based on a painting of Russell Falls by Haughton Forrest.
Between 1882 and 1900, revenue stamps of 1863 to 1900 were valid for postage. These postal fiscals remained in use unofficially until 1903.
