Template:PD-GDR stamps

This file is most likely NOT in the public domain. It has been marked for review, and will be deleted in due course if the review does not find it to be in the public domain. This file was previously considered to be in the public domain as a German stamp; it is possible that it is in the public domain for other reasons, in which case a new rationale will be applied as part of the review process. See below for the previous rationale.

Previous public domain rationale, no longer applicable
This stamp is in the public domain in Germany because it was released by the postal administration of the German Democratic Republic or the Soviet occupation zone (Deutschen Post der DDR) whose legal successor is the Federal Republic of Germany. Thus it is an official work according to German copyright law (§ 5 Abs. 1 UrhG).
