The Navigation and Commerce issue is a series of French postage stamps issued for the colonial territories of France. It is the first series of territory-specific postal releases. The issue uses a standard design, with an empty space for the imprinting of the territory name.
It was first released in 1892, with later releases featuring new color schemes. Dates vary by territory, but by 1900 surcharged values start appearing in red or black ink.
