Hello Everyone,

I would like to know some information on resignation procedure.

1. Can the official resignation letter be sent via email (sending signed copy of me and requesting a signed copy from the employer) ?

2. Can the resignation letter and letter of intent to resign be in English?

3. Can the resignation letter contains effective start date of notice period (say 2 weeks later the notice starts and ends 3 weeks after the start date)?

Please share your experience.

Kindly advice

1) You can email your resignation, but that is plain rude and should always be with a signed accompanying letter.

2) How does the company operate, was English the main language spoken? Generally, out of politeness, you send it in the local language.

3) If you wish to leave your job, you give notice of what is written in your contract. You don't pick and choose the date unless your employer asks you to stay on, but that is after you have submitted your resignation later in.
