This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of Uzbekistan.
Uzbekistan, officially the Republic of Uzbekistan (Uzbek: O‘zbekiston Respublikasi or Ўзбекистон Республикаси), is a doubly landlocked country in Central Asia, formerly part of the Soviet Union. It has been an independent republic since December 1991. Currently, postal service is provided by O′zbekiston Pochtasi.
First stamps
The first stamps of Uzbekistan were issued on 7 May 1992.[1] Before then, Uzbekistan used stamps of the Soviet Union.
Overprints
In 1993 and 1995 the Uzbekistan Post resorted to overprinting stamps of the Soviet Union as supplies of the new Uzbeki stamps ran low.[2]
