Established in 1874, the Universal Postal Union functions as a central forum for cooperation among postal-sector actors, working to sustain a universal network of current products and services. As a specialized agency of the United Nations with 192 member countries, it provides advisory, mediating, and liaison support and delivers technical assistance where needed. It sets rules for international mail exchanges and issues recommendations intended to stimulate growth in mail volumes and improve service quality for customers. It operates as a non-political inter-governmental organization and does not intrude on the domestic operations of national postal services, where decisions about postage rates, stamps, and operations are made by each country. It is headquartered in Bern, Canton of Bern, Switzerland, and traces its founding to 1874. A notable recent development is a 2025 partnership with India Post to launch a global digital remittance service that connects India's UPI with the UPU's interconnection platform.
