It depends on the context.
upon = sobre, encima
he leaped upon his horse = saltó sobre su caballo
also en el momento de, inmediatamente después
upon receipt = al recibo, a vuelta de correo
upon the first opportunity = a la primera oportunidad
also contra
to turn upon him = volverse contra él
and also many different spanish prepositions like:
con : upon this terms = con estas condiciones
depend upon it = cuente con ello
de : to live upon grass = alimentarse de yerba
to depend upon one = depender de uno
etc.

"Upon" can mean various different things in English, and you didn't give an example of which meaning you wanted. But in most cases, "upon" means "on top of", so "sobre" is correct.
Here are some other ways to use "upon" that mean different things:
It came UPON a midnight clear
Once UPON a time
I wish UPON a star
None of those would use "sobre"

Is "Sobre"
Example : Sobre la mesa - upon the table
However it depends on the context.
"upon request" is "a pedido"

Its "sobre". If in English you were to say "It was put upon me" in Spanish it would be "Fue puesto SOBRE mi". Hope this helps.

"Por encima de" is sometimes used as "upon." It depends on the context.
