How to write a formal letter

 Writing a formal letter in English follows a specific structure. Here are the essential components:

Header:

Date: Include the date when you write the letter.

Recipient’s Address: Write the recipient’s full address, including their PO Box number or office suite.

Sender’s Address (Return Address): Include your company’s full address.

Salutation:

Begin with “Dear” followed by the recipient’s title and last name.

Body:

Introduce the purpose of the letter in the opening paragraph.

Provide specific information in the body of the letter.

Maintain a professional tone throughout.

Closing:

End the letter with a closing salutation (e.g., “Sincerely,” “Yours faithfully,” etc.).

Signature:

Sign the letter with your name (in block letters) and designation.

Remember, formal letters can be delivered through email as well, depending on the urgency and preferences of the sender and receiver. If you have a specific type of formal letter in mind (such as a job application or recommendation letter), feel free to ask for more details! 😊
