Dear [Boss's Name],

I will make sure to complete all my outstanding tasks and ensure a smooth transition of work before I take my leave. If there are any urgent matters that arise during my absence, please do not hesitate to reach out to [Name of colleague or backup contact].

I would appreciate it if you could approve my request as soon as possible so that I can make the necessary arrangements. If there are any issues or concerns, please let me know and I will do my best to resolve them.

Be respectful: Use a professional tone and language in your email.
Proofread: Double-check your email for spelling and grammar errors before sending it to your boss.
