Formal email greetings

Here are some common formal email greetings:

  1. Dear [Recipient's Name]: This is a classic and professional way to start an email.
  2. Hello [Recipient's Name]: A friendly and polite greeting that is suitable for most formal emails.
  3. Good [morning/afternoon/evening] [Recipient's Name]: This greeting acknowledges the time of day and is suitable for emails sent during business hours.
  4. Dear Sir/Madam: This greeting is formal and polite, but it's a bit more generic than addressing the recipient by name.
  5. To Whom It May Concern: This greeting is often used when you don't know the recipient's name or when sending a formal email to a large organization.
  6. Greetings: This greeting is simple and to the point, but it's not as formal as some of the other options.
  7. Dear [Title] [Recipient's Name]: If you're addressing a recipient with a title (e.g. Dr., Mr., Ms.), you can include it in the greeting.
