<div>This is a survey of the '''[[postage stamp]]s and [[postal history]] of [[Kyrgyzstan]]'''.<br />
<br />
Under the [[Soviet Union]], the [[Kyrgyz SSR]] postal service was an integral part of the Soviet system. The republic was periodically recognized in sets of stamps honoring the different parts of the USSR.<br />
<br />

<br />
Kyrgyzstan declared independence in August 1991, but did not issue its first stamp until [[4 February]] [[1992]], a single design depicting the [[Sary-Chelek Nature Preserve]]. The country's name was given in both [[Cyrillic alphabet|Cyrillic]] and [[Latin alphabet|Latin]] letters; many Kyrgyz stamps have since done likewise, although the practice is not consistent, with some stamps only inscribed in Cyrillic and others only in Latin.<br />
<br />
In April and June 1993, several types of Russian stamps were [[surcharge]]d in [[Russian ruble|ruble]] values, followed in August by the first stamps denominated in [[tyiyn]].<br />
<br />
[[Illegal stamp]] issues have been a problem for the country for several years, with private persons printing labels resembling legititimate Kyrgyz stamps, and selling them to unsuspecting collectors.<br />
