During the period of British rule over the Land of Israel, post offices were established in more than one hundred and thirty settlements all over the country. Some of the post offices were opened in old and established settlements, and others were established in new and sparsely populated settlements that came up on the ground a short time before. One of those settlements was "Afula", where a post office was opened in 1920.

On March 20, 1965, the Khorpakan enclave post office issued its first stamps. The stamps were issued by adding an overprint with the name of the enclave on stamps of Sharjah.
