Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) — Uzbekistan’s postal operator UzPost has received a silver-level certificate for compliance with the security standards of the Universal Postal Union (UPU), the press service of the Ministry of Digital Technologies reported.

The decision to award the certificate followed an inspection conducted by UPU experts at UzPost facilities in March 2026. The certificate was officially presented to the company during a regular session of the organisation.

The assessment covered operations at the International Post Office branch, as well as facilities handling airmail and printed publications.

To obtain the certificate, UzPost met the practical and technical requirements of two UPU standards: S58, “General Security Measures”, and S59, “Office Security for International Mail Processing and Airmail Exchanges”.

In preparation for the inspection, the company reviewed technical and infrastructure security measures at its facilities, upgraded monitoring and scanning systems, and improved staff operational training.

According to the ministry, the certificate confirms compliance with international security requirements for postal and logistics chains passing through Uzbekistan. It is also intended to strengthen customer confidence in the security and delivery of international and domestic mail.

The ministry noted that the silver-level security certification could expand UzPost’s opportunities to establish direct cooperation with foreign postal operators and major e-commerce platforms, as well as help increase transit volumes.

The company said it intends to continue improving the security and efficiency of its logistics facilities.
