The German Post Offices Abroad were a network of post offices in foreign countries established by Germany to provide mail service where the local services were deemed unsafe or unreliable. They were generally set up in cities with some sort of German commercial interest. In the earliest period when such offices were open, stamps used there can only be identified by their cancellations. Such stamps are known as "Vorläufer" (forerunner) stamps. Later stamps issued for use at a post office abroad can generally be identified by overprints even when not postally used. Germany began issuing distinctive stamps for use overseas beginning in the late 19th century, and the number and variety of issues reached its heyday at the beginning of the 20th century. All German Post Offices Abroad were closed

| - Die Deutsche Post in China war eine von 1886 bis 1917 bestehende Einrichtung des Deutschen Reichs in China. Sie diente der Errichtung und dem Betrieb von Post- und Telekommunikationsdiensten zwischen den beiden Ländern. Die deutsche Politik sah Teile des östlichen China als Kolonialgebiet an und errichtete dort ohne bilaterale Absprachen Postämter. Der politische Hintergrund waren wirtschaftliche Interessen, basierend auf einem Handelsabkommen zwischen beiden Ländern von 1861. Die deutsche Post richtete 1886 die erste Reichspostdampferlinie nach Ostasien ein. (de)

Germany began issuing distinctive stamps for use overseas beginning in the late 19th century, and the number and variety of issues reached its heyday at the beginning of the 20th century. All German Post Offices Abroad were closed down during or shortly after World War I. It was not unusual for countries to maintain such offices and Austria-Hungary, China, France, Greece, Italy, Japan, Poland, Romania, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States all did so. In the latter part of the 19th century and into the 20th century, having extraterritorial post offices was one indication of a nation's international power. Stamps from German post offices abroad are popular with collectors and some are quite valuable. In a 2006 auction, a 40 Pfennig Germania hand-stamped "China" (Tientsin issue) stamp from 1900 realized 100,152 Euros. (en)
