Class 8 Modern Philately (2001 to date)
The objectives are to encourage collectors of Modern Philatelic materials to exhibit at the highest level and to demonstrate to the Postal Administrations that there are an extensive body of philatelists who collect and study materials issued by them after 2001. The Organizing Committee is making this class available for exhibits complying with the FIP special regulations for

(A) Traditional Philately
(B) Postal History
(C) Postal Stationery
Qualifying exhibits for the Modern Philately must contain philatelic materials issued by the Postal authorities after 2001. Stamp series of philatelic topics chosen for this class which were substantially issued on/after 2001 are qualified as topics for the Modern Philately. However, the exhibit may include a small percentage of material issued pre- 2001 that is important and relevant to the exhibit. Modern Philately exhibits will be judged according to the respective FIP SREVs currently in force for the above-mentioned three FIP classes. The exhibits will be judged under modified FIP SREVs points breakdown awarded up to 25 points for Treatment, up to 35 points for Philatelic and related knowledge, Personal study and Research, a maximum 10 points for Condition, 20 points for Rarity and Difficulty of acquisition and up to 10 points for Presentation. The distribution of points available recognize that Modern Philatelic material is worthy of study and in many instances is difficult to acquire, treat and present while the short passage of time since their issue has not provided an accurate indication of importance or rarity. FIAP medals will be awarded to the appropriate exhibit and they will be recorded in the FIAP Awards records. Certificate of Participation will be given to exhibits attaining less than 60 points. Acceptance of entry into the Modern Philately for THAILAND 2025 will be based on the recommendation of national commissioners and at the discretion of the THAILAND 2025 Organizing Committee. Acceptance of any entries in the Modern Philately will not preclude acceptances of entries in any other class. All other requirements of the THAILAND 2025 IREX will apply.
