[citation needed] Jersey Post International Limited was incorporated as a Limited Liability Company by the States Assembly on 1 July 2006 when the Postal Services (Jersey) Law 2005[6] came fully into force allowing competition in this sector for the first time.
It is licensed by the Jersey Competition Regulatory Authority as a Class II postal operator and, as such, is designated to hold significant market power and thus is liable for the universal service on the Island.
[8][9] In 1969, with the establishment of Jersey Post, UK postage stamps ceased to be valid in the Crown Dependencies.
The Bailiwicks had previously produced stamps and operated independent postal systems during the 1940–1945 German occupation of the Channel Islands.
These include Promail, its mailing house set up in 1996, and Offshore Solutions, its fulfilment service.
