International Postal Processing Centers, identified by the abbreviation IMPC, are introduced among selected postal operators of member countries of the Universal Postal Union. These centers are located at the entry and exit borders of countries, including airports, ports, and common borders between two countries, facilitating the processing and operational processes of international postal items. Each unique identifier has a fully defined physical location managed by an organization or its representative, and the process of receiving, sending, and transiting documents and goods through these centers between selected operators is considered ‘postal items’ and is subject to non-commercial behavior.

According to the National Postal Company, all postal bags sent by one selected postal operator to another must have the identifier code on the tags of the postal bags to enable the international exchange of shipments as ‘postal items’ in the country of origin and destination by the competent authorities, including customs.
