To align with the postal rate revision effective 1 January 2018, three definitive stamps featuring new regular denominations of HK$2.60, HK$3.40 and HK$4.90 were issued, adopting the design series of the 2014 “Hong Kong Global Geopark” definitive stamps. The HK$4.90 Fa Shan stamp features a close‑up view of mountain ridges and geological textures at Fa Shan.
On 1 January 2018, the first‑day of issue for the stamps, the postal rate for small P‑class airmail items weighing up to 50 g bound for Northern Europe (Zone 3 international destinations from Hong Kong) was increased from HK$6.50 to HK$7.40.
The first‑day cover uses a plain white envelope affixed with two copies each of the HK$2.60 Ma Shi Chau, HK$3.40 Yan Chau and HK$4.90 Fa Shan stamps (i.e., two full sets of the definitives). An older‑style fully English‑language postal label was added to make up HK$1.10 in supplementary postage, meeting the total required postage of HK$22.90 (HK$7.40 + HK$15.50) for a 50 g small P‑class international airmail item to Zone 3.
Postmarked at Hong Kong Central General Post Office on 1 January 2018, the cover was delivered to Sweden in Northern Europe on 26 March 2018, with a transit time of 83 days.
