Professional email writing in Japanese typically follows formal and polite conventions, with structured templates used for various business contexts. These templates often include elements such as appropriate greetings, respectful language (keigo), clear purpose statements, and courteous closings.

Key points for professional Japanese emails include:

  • Use of formal greetings like はじめまして (Hajimemashite) or お世話になっております (Osewa ni natte orimasu) depending on the relationship.
  • Clearly stating the main point or purpose early in the email.
  • Polite expressions such as 〜ございます (gozaimasu) and 〜いたします (itashimasu).
  • Formal sentence endings like 〜ございますか (gozaimasu ka) for questions.
  • Proper closing phrases like よろしくお願いいたします (Yoroshiku onegaishimasu).
  • Signature with name, title, and contact information.

Examples of templates include:

  1. Initial Contact Email
