1 Introduction

The aim of thisquestionnaire is to gather representative data on postal activities and development as well as data that can later be used to develop postal sector measurement indicators.

The statistical data gathered by means of this questionnaire form the basis of global and regional analyses carried out by the UPU International Bureau in the postal development field. They also provide information on eachPost, i.e. designated postal operators (previously known as public postal operators) for publication in the Postal Statistics yearbook and the online UPU Postal Statistics database, at www.upu.int/en/resources.html.

The UPU's postal statistics therefore constitute:

– an analytical tool for systematically revealing the general trends of postal development;

– a comparative basis forevaluating postal development throughout the world; and

– a strategic decision-making tool for reacting to international market developments.

The existence of high quality statistics is essential if the UPU andpostal businesses are to be in a position to develop appropriate policies and manage their development. Unreliable or incomplete data can lead to misinformed decisions, which in turn lead to wasted resources.
