The stamps feature photos of Prince George, along with his parents Prince William and Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, taken outside St Mary's Hospital in London a day after the birth on 22 July.
New Zealand Post is also issuing a limited edition one-ounce, silver-proof coin with gold plating, which features a coronet design assigned to Prince George and incorporating a stylised koru.
New Zealand Post says the Queen and the Duke and Duchess have personally approved the images.
People can pre-order the stamps, which go on sale from 11 September.
