If something is enclosed with a letter, the notation “Enclosure” is typed a double-space below the writer's initials and/or typist's initials. If more than one item is enclosed, the word is made plural and followed by the number of items (e.g., “Enclosures 2”).
Under your name at the end of the letter, skip two lines. On the third line, write "Enclosure:" or "Enclosures:" if there are multiple documents. Skip a line after "Enclosures:" and then begin your list of enclosures. Put each enclosed document title on its own line.

Note the attachments Under your name and title, type “Enclosure:” or “Attachment:” to indicate that you've included additional documents. On the next line, provide a brief description of the contents. In a typical letter with an attachment, you might state “Curriculum Vitae,” for example.
Both “Enc.” and “Encl.” are acceptable. If you're enclosing more than one document, you can note the number of enclosures after the abbreviation but don't add an “s” to the abbreviation.
An enclosure is something that closes you in, like a pen or a cage. When a cobra disappeared from an enclosure at the Bronx Zoo, the entire Reptile House had to be shut down until the snake was found. An enclosure can also be something that's included in an envelope with a cover letter of some sort.
On a paper business letter, you often include the CC line underneath your signature, either above or below any enclosures line.
Key points to remember when writing a cover letter enclosure: Always include the enclosure at the end of the cover letter. Leave two line-space between your name and enclosure. Ensure to write “Enclosures:” for multiple documents and “Enclosure:” for a single document. Write the document names in single lines.
An enclosure is any natural or artificial boundary limiting access around a piece of land. For example, a fence, wall, hedge, ditch, or other physical barrier can be considered an enclosure.
