Belarus ranks 15th among 172 countries in the overall postal development rating (2IPD)

The Integrated Postal Development Indicator (2IPD) is determined annually by the Universal Postal Union. This is a composite index that gives a generalized picture of postal development in any country based on four key components: reliability, coverage, relevance and sustainability.

According to the Report of the Universal Postal Union on Postal Development in 2022, the Republic of Belarus ranked 15th among 172 countries with a total score of 71.31.

The Republic of Belarus occupies a leading position among the CIS countries, as well as the second place in terms of sustainable postal development.

The main goal of the 2IPD methodology was to determine the level of postal development for each country (PDL). The UPU classifies countries into 10 categories of postal development – from level 1 to 10.

According to this classification, the Republic of Belarus is assigned to level 8: using its portfolio of postal services, companies of countries of this level provide citizens with more favorable offers and contribute to economic growth, which is the potential for creating an important eco-system.
