Have you ever written a business email in English, but had trouble coming up with an English expression to conclude it? Various expressions are used to infer business emails, and the impression you give to the other person will change depending on the closing expression. The closing of an email is the part that emphasises the message you want to convey to the other person, so you want to use an appropriate expression to conclude it.

In this article, we will introduce 10 recommended closing expressions for writing business emails in English.

 

1. I look forward to hearing from you.

If you want the other person to reply immediately, add "Soon" to the end and use "I look forward to hearing from you soon" or "Please reply as soon as possible because...".

2. Please let me know if that sounds okay.

Please let me know if... is a phrase that can be used in various situations. For example, if you are unsure whether the other party will agree to an extension of the delivery date, you can confirm by saying, "Please let me know if you need an extension." This phrase is often used in business emails.

3. If you need any information, please get in touch with me.

You can also use "If you require any further information" as a similar phrase. Additionally, "Please do not hesitate to contact me" conveys the nuance that you would feel free to reach out to them.

4. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Phrases beginning with "If you..." are often seen in the closings of business emails. If you want to know what the question is about, you can say, "If you have any questions about...". If you add "More" and say "If you have any more questions," it means that you have any further questions.

5. If we can be of further assistance, please get in touch.

If you would like the other party to assist you, you can ask them by saying "Any assistance would be highly appreciated," or "Any help would be greatly appreciated.".

6. I look forward to seeing you then.

Use this phrase when you know that you will meet the other person at the next meeting. If you see the day of the week, you can specify it specifically. If you know the other person well, you can say a short phrase like "See you on Monday."

7. I hope we have the chance to meet again soon.

Use this phrase when you have met the other person before, but do not have plans to meet them again at the moment.

For example, you may have interpreted for the other person when they visited Japan a year ago, but they currently have no plans to visit Japan.

8. Thank you in advance.

Use this phrase when you ask someone to do a time-consuming task. For example, you may be asking them to collect a vast amount of information about a foreign company related to virtual currency or to do time-consuming research.

9. Thank you for helping me solve the problem.

Use this phrase at the end of a business letter when you want to express your gratitude again.

10. I hope that is acceptable to you.

Use this phrase when addressing a complaint. For example, you might use this phrase after offering a solution to a customer's complaint or after explaining why a problem occurred.
