Afghan Post is the national postal organization of Afghanistan. It is responsible for providing postal services in Afghanistan. Afghanistan first established postal service in 1870, where it received international recognition. On the eve of the Soviet invasion it had grown into one of the stronger regional postal services, able to send and receive letters from anywhere in the world in a timely manner. During the 1990s the Afghan postal service lay in near total ruin, undone by the nation's civil war. Sending a letter usually meant having to find someone traveling in the direction of the recipient willing to carry a note and hoping for the best. Since the civil war, the postal service has reinvented itself with offices in all 34 provinces, and, it is close to having offices in all 364 districts. As the government struggles to develop despite an excess of foreign aid, the post office has quietly managed to become one of the most efficient national institutions – and with extremely limited international assistance. Though street addresses are a foreign concept in Afghanistan, the postal service manages to do house deliveries. The Afghan postal service has turned into a promising administration.

First postal service

The first postal arrangements in Afghanistan are credited to Sher Ali Khan, who established a postal service in the 1860s as part of a program to modernize the country.
