FAQ
For those who wish to communicate directly with The King, the following style is used: The letter should begin 'Sir', 'Madam' or 'May it please Your Majesty'. The first line of the letter itself should begin with the phrase 'With my humble duty'; the main content of the letter then follows.
In the body of the letter alternate between 'Your Majesty' and 'Your Majesty's' and 'you' and 'your'. The envelope should be addressed to 'His Majesty The King' or 'Her Majesty The Queen'.
On presentation to The Queen, the correct formal address is 'Your Majesty' and subsequently 'Ma'am,' pronounced with a short 'a,' as in 'jam'. For male members of the Royal Family the same rules apply, with the title used in the first instance being 'Your Royal Highness' and subsequently 'Sir'.
There are no physical Books of Condolence at the Royal Residences. An online Book of Condolence for those who wish to leave messages is available on the Royal website: .
Short sympathy card messages “I am so sorry for your loss.” “My deepest sympathy for your loss.” “Words fail to express my deep sorrow for your loss.” “My heart goes out to you and your family.” “Please know that I am with you — I'm only a phone call away.” “Sharing in your sadness as you remember your lost loved one.”
Guidelines for writing condolence letters: Make sure you include the name of the person who died or mention the specific incident that caused sorrow for the person. If you knew the deceased, mention something positive about the person, such as a memory, a short story, or anything else that pays tribute to their life.
For men this is a neck bow (from the head only) whilst women do a small curtsy. Other people prefer simply to shake hands in the usual way. On presentation to The King or Queen, the correct formal address is 'Your Majesty' and subsequently 'Sir' or 'Ma'am,' pronounced with a short 'a,' as in 'jam'.
