Post and Telecom of Kosovo (Albanian: Posta dhe Telekomi i Kosovës, Serbian: Пошта и Телекомуникације Косова д.д., transliterated: Pošta i Telekomunikacije Kosova d.d.) is the postal and telecommunications authority of Kosovo.[2]

Post and Telecom of Kosovo was created on December 21, 1965 and has three business units: Post of Kosovo, Telecom of Kosovo, Vala – the Mobile Operator (previously known as Vala900). The three business units of PTK are licensed by Telecommunication Regulation Authority of Kosovo.

On June 29, 2005, Post and Telecom of Kosovo was transformed into a Joint Stock Company, with new name PTK J.S.C.

Vala is the first licensed mobile operator in Kosovo. It has operated since 2000, and is the largest mobile operator in Kosovo with approximately 1,150,000 customers.[3] Monaco Telecom is responsible for the delegated management of the network, and the network is thus using a Monaco mobile network code.
