After the privatization of the telephone telecommunications service business, the directorate was renamed, keeping its acronym.

In 1995, the telephone and other telecommunication services were transferred to newly founded Türk Telekom (which was soon privatized).

Accordingly, the directorate was renamed as "Organization of Post and Telegraph" (Turkish: Posta Telgraf Teşkilatı), thus the former acronym PTT is kept.

[7] Alongside mailing services, the PTT also offers a variety of other services such as telegraph, postage stamps, philately, hybrid mailing, HGS payments, insurance, PttAVM: an e-commerce website, and PttCell: a mobile virtual network operator using Türk Telekom infrastructure, and much more.
