FAQ
Guidelines for writing appreciation letters: State what you appreciate and briefly explain why. Do not add other news or information not related to the appreciative gesture. The message of appreciation should stand alone. Be brief, warm, and sincere.
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. It should end 'I have the honour to remain, Sir/Madam, Your Majesty's most humble and obedient servant'.
Unless you are personally known to The King or The Queen or another member of the royal family you should address your letter to a Private Secretary, Equerry or Lady in Waiting, asking for the subject of the letter be known to His or Her Majesty. Envelope: The Private Secretary to The King (for example).
If communicating directly with a member of the Royal Family the letter should begin 'Sir/Madam' and end 'I have the honour to remain, Sir/Madam, Your Royal Highness's most humble and obedient servant'. In the body of the letter substitute 'Your Royal Highness' for 'you' and 'Your Royal Highness's' for 'your'.
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'.
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'. For other female members of the Royal Family the first address is conventionally 'Your Royal Highness' and subsequently 'Ma'am'.
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.

When writing to The King, tradition dictates you should open with 'Sir' and close the letter with 'I have the honour to be, Madam, Your Majesty's humble and obedient servant'. For The Queen, start with 'Madam', and close it in the same way.
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'.
