Hi Patrik,

The first stamp in the first row is a postal tax stamp from Bahrain. Stamps in this design were first issued in 1973.

The second and third stamps in the second row are revenue stamps from Syria.

The second stamp in the first row is an Indian Social Security stamp.

I believe the first stamp in the second row is also Syrian but I don't know what it is.

The first one in the second row is not from Syria, it's from Egypt and it's interesting stamp (took me a while to find it) it's the Egypt National Electricity Organization (top of the stamp) and bottom is written Organization serving the citizens.
