A letter which is written for official purposes like writing to a manager, to an employee, principle or any other official authorities.

On one hand informal letters are written in casual, easy going and conversational tone, on the other hand formal letters do not have these attributes.

There is no room for personal matters in formal letters. Formal letters are meant to convey the purpose briefly and to the point with fewer words.

EXAMPLE: You are Mahesh. There are many stray dogs in your colony. Write a letter to the Municipal Commissioner, Delhi Municipal Corporation, Town Hall, Delhi- 110006 requesting him to instruct the concerned staff to take away these dogs. Your address is 7/13, Shakti Nagar, Delhi- 110007.

The Municipal Commissioner,

Delhi Municipal Corporation,

Town Hall,

Delhi- 110006

Subject: Nuisance of stray dogs

Respected sir,

I beg to draw your kind attention to the problem of stray dogs in our locality. The number of these dogs is swelling every day. They are getting on the nerves of the residents of the colony.

At night, they start barking in chorus and create a hell of a noise, sleep becomes almost impossible. The sick keep tossing in their beds and the students cannot concentrate on their studies. Nobody dares to move out of his/ her house at night for fear of these dogs.

You are, therefore, requested to instruct the concerned staff to take away these stray dogs and rid us of this nuisance.

Thanking you

Yours faithfully,

Mahesh
