You, need to log in your system, do the following steps

1. open file  .bash_profile as  " vim  ~/.bash_profile "

2. Add line  " PATH=<path of your postgres bin>:$PATH " without quotation
before "export PATH "
   in my case "PATH=/opt/PostgreSQL/bin:$PATH"

3. save file and run command in terminal " source  ~/.bash_profile "

4. verify it exported correctly or not as follow
 [amul@localhost ~]$ which psql
/opt/PostgreSQL/bin/psql


Regards,
Amul
