Now, I need to write one formal letter to tell one department that I have lost one document.

In the letter , I should tell the reasons for the losing, and request for re-issue.

However, I do not know how to use formal English to write.

Anyone help me?

Thanks a lot !!!

Hi,

Begin by just writing what you would say if you were speaking to the person face to face. Then post that here and we will help you with comments. OK?

Best wishes, Clive

What would you say to the person who is to re-issue the document if you were standing in front of them?

Write that down.

Then post it here and someone will comment on it.
