The format of writing a Formal Letter

• The sender‟s address is usually put on the top left-hand

corner of the page.

• The sender‟s address is followed by the date just below

it, i.e. on the left side of the page. This is the date on

which the letter is being written. It is important in formal

letters as they are often kept on record.

• After leaving some space we write the recipient‟s

address on the left side of the page. Below that write “To”

and make sure you write the official title/name/position

etc of the recipient, as the first line of the address.
