In 1948, after the establishment of the State of Israel, the Ministry of Transportation was given responsibility for the provision of postal services in the country.

In 2002, in the wake of these losses, political scandals and technological developments in communications, major reforms were implemented.

[4] In June 2013, Israel Post signed an agreement to deploy the latest version of Escher’s Group Riposte retail software, a peer-to-peer network technology.

[5] In October 2014, Israel Post announced that it would be laying off 1,200 employees and dropping mail delivery to twice a week.

[1] In March 2015, Israel Post added the ability to make appointments online or via an app, in another effort to reduce waiting times.

Nevertheless, Doar Ivri ("Hebrew Post") stamps appeared immediately after the declaration of independence, and went on sale at postal branches throughout the country.

[13] Every year, the Israel Postal Company receives thousands of letters from all over the world addressed to God.
