The history of Pos Malaysia Berhad can be traced back to the early 1800s with the establishment of postal services first in the Straits Settlements in Penang, Malacca and Singapore expanding through the rest of Malaya by the early 20th century. 

The Federated Malay States Posts and Telegraphs Department was formally created on 1 January 1905 with the merger of the postal and telegraph services of Perak, Selangor, Negri Sembilan, and Pahang.

A Malayan Postage Union was established in 1907 that instituted universal postage rates for the Federated Malay States, the Straits Settlements, and Johor. In 1957, after Malaysia gained independence, the Postal Department was established as a government agency.

In 1976, Postal Services Department implemented the first postcode system to make mail delivery more convenient.

In 2007, Pos Malaysia was restructured as a government-linked company (GLC). In addition, the company also opened more subsidiaries such as Pos Aviation, Pos Logistics, etc. to further expand the exploitation directions of delivery services and other services of the company.

The company in 2018 began its transformation into a dynamic postal, logistics, aviation, financial and supply chain solutions provider with Malaysia’s largest delivery network. The company currently has more than 926 branches and small post offices in Malaysia.

With a history of over 200 operations, Pos Malaysia is evolving and finding ways to optimize workflow and customer experience.
