postage due
Recipient owes carrier
Postage due is the amount a recipient must pay when mail arrives with insufficient postage.
The sender underpaid, so the postal service collects the difference—plus a fee—from the person receiving it: The package arrived postage due because it was heavier than the sender realized.
A postage due stamp marks such items.
