The Postal Union of the Americas, Spain and Portugal (UPAEP) is an
intergovernmental organization, gathering at present 27 State Members, with
headquarters in Montevideo, in Uruguay. Established in 1911 under the
designation South America Postal Union, this Organization has amended
successively its scope and designation, at first with the enlargement across the
whole American territory.
UPAEP's mission comprises the constant improvement of the postal services
of its member countries, facilitating the exchange of experiences and the
operation of concerted action between postal bodies, and implementing
international cooperation initiatives, always bearing in mind the promotion of
postal interchange, at national and international level, an action governed by
guarantees regarding security, regularity, speed and economy.
