Aanhef formele mail

In formal email etiquette, the salutation or greeting at the beginning of an email is typically formal and professional. Here are some common examples of formal email salutations:

1. Dear [Recipient's Name]:
2. Dear Sir/Madam:
3. Dear [Title] [Recipient's Name]:
4. To Whom It May Concern:
5. Dear [Department/Team] [Recipient's Name]:

For example:

• Dear John Smith:
• Dear Sir/Madam:
• Dear Dr. Jane Doe:
• To Whom It May Concern:
• Dear Marketing Team:

It's generally a good idea to use the recipient's title and last name, especially if you don't have a prior relationship with them. If you're unsure of the recipient's title, you can use "Dear [Last Name]" or "Dear [First Name]".

In some cases, you may also use a more formal closing, such as:

• Sincerely
• Best regards
• Kind regards
• Respectfully
• Yours faithfully

For example:

• Sincerely,
• Best regards,
• Kind regards,
• Respectfully,
• Yours faithfully,

Remember to always proofread your email for spelling and grammar errors before sending it, and to use a professional tone throughout the email.
