Letter of inquiry

A letter of inquiry is a general term used for a number of different kinds of business letters addressed to a company.

For example, applicants usually send a letter of inquiry (with an enclosed CV) to the employer from whom they would like to work. Companies send a letter of inquiry to their business partner when they need information about the goods they'd like to order.

A letter of inquiry is usually short and to the point, containing only the request and a short introduction with an address, phone number or e-mail address from the sender's side.
