Relieving letter is a formal letter that is issued to the employee at the time of leaving an organization. In this article, we will understand about the relieving letter format in detail.

What is Relieving letter?

Relieving letter is the formal way of informing the employee that his/her resignation has been accepted and he is relieved from his responsibilities and duties he/she was bound with subject to the contract of employment signed by him/her. This letter is required to be  submitted to the future employers.

This is important because, while joining a new company an employee is asked to submit the relieving letter from the previous organization. This acts as a written proof that the employee has left the previous company without any issues.
