Tips for bank letters

Many banks have their own printed form for closing an account, KYC or a new card. If the branch gives you one, use that. This letter can go with it.

Ask for an acknowledgement copy of your letter.

FAQ

Can I send the letter by email?

Some banks accept requests from your registered email, but many need a signed letter at the branch. Check with your bank.

Is a letter enough to close my account?

Usually the branch also asks for a form, your passbook, unused cheque leaves, your debit card and ID proof. Carry them all.
