The sale of national flags began on August 1.

Step 6: Make the payment to finish the order after the procedure is complete.
The Department of Post has also ordered the post offices to deliver the flags in the minimum possible time as the sale window is very narrow just before Independence Day.
Since the sale window is quite narrow right before Independence Day, the Department of Post has also instructed the post offices to send the flags as soon as possible.
