La Poste Monaco
La Poste Monaco is the company responsible for postal service in Monaco. It is a branch of Groupe La Poste.History
Postal services in Monaco are provided by France, as assured by the Treaty of Péronne in 1641. This relationship has been interrupted twice, with the first interruption occurring during the French Revolution. By Decree of the National Convention on October 27, 1793, the Principality of Monaco was integrated into the territory of France until the passing of the Treaty of Paris on May 30, 1814. The second interruption occurred just shortly after as a result of the Second Treaty of Paris, which made Monaco a protectorate of the Kingdom of Sardinia. This led the Monagasque postal system to become Sardinian from the signing of the Treaty of Stupinigi until the signing of the Treaty of Turin on 24 March 1860, again making Monaco a principality of France, and restoring their postal relationship.Services
