World Post Day is celebrated every year on 9 October. It is an international day celebrated on the anniversary of the Universal Postal Union (UPU). The Universal Postal Union (UPU) started in Switzerland in 1874. The UPU can be considered the beginning of the global communications revolution as it introduced the ability to write letters to others around the world.

Actually, World Post Day started in 1969. It is celebrated every year on 9 October to commemorate the establishment of the Universal Postal Union (UPU) in 1874 in the Swiss capital Bern.
