The Philippine postal system was started over 250 years ago. The first post office was established in the city of Manila in 1767, which was later organized under a new postal district of Spain. At first, the postal office served mainly for church documents and courier government. The postal district encompassed the entire Philippine archipelago and Manila in 1779.
It was re-established on December 5, 1837. Manila became known as a leading center of postal services within Asia a year later. In 1875, Spain joined the Universal Postal Union, which was announced in the Philippines two years later. By then, post offices were set up in many cities and major towns in the provinces.
The Philippine Postal Corporation (Filipino: Korporasyong Pangkoreo ng Pilipinas), abbreviated as PHLPost (PhilPost prior to 2012), is a government-owned and controlled corporation responsible for providing postal services in the Philippines.
