Q: The Post Office recently informed me that all envelopes must be less than 6-1/8 inches wide to qualify for a standard stamp. The stated size of this envelope is 6x9 but I need to confirm that the actual size is less than 6-1/8 inches. Thanks! Asked on 9/11/2009 by Anonymous Know the answer? Answer this question 5 answers A: These are 6" x 9" in size. Answered on 10/15/2009 by Customer Care from Staples A: Yes, it is. They mail at the same rate, first class, as a #10 envelope Answered on 11/17/2009 by BFD from Vermont A: The envelopes (Staples brand) are an eighth shorter, so in reality the 6x9 is really 5 and 7/8th inches by 8 and 15/16th inches long. They are perfect to send home-made greeting cards, or 20-pg booklets (example offered are what I had used them for). Answered on 10/27/2009 by Joann from Florida A: it measures six inches on my ruler Answered on 10/29/2009 by Rett from Kokomo, IN A: This product measures less than the maximum specified by USPS to qualify for the lowest letter envelope rate (square envelope). The envelope doesn't have to be square, but merely fall within the dimensional constraints. The dimension in question is the height, not the width. USPS dimension specifications are 3-1/2 - 6-1/8 in height x 5 - 11-1/2 in width. The 6 x 9 side open envelope falls within these restrictions. Keep in mind that a rigid insert (hard cardboard, CD, etc.) will push the envelope into the 'rigid' category (a higher rate). Also, keep the thickness to less than 1/4 in. This info is from the USPS website for calculating postage. Answered on 4/20/2010 by Environmental Consultant from Napa Valley, CA
