About this tool

A resignation letter should be short and polite: say that you are resigning, from which role, and your last working day. Thanking your employer and offering to help with the handover keeps the relationship good for references. You do not have to explain why you are leaving.

The generator follows local habits: the date style (November 3, 2026 in the US, 3 November 2026 in the UK), the sign-off ("Sincerely" or "Yours sincerely"), and a short note on how notice usually works in that country. Notice periods depend on your contract and local law, so check yours before choosing a last working day.

Good to know

  • Notice notes are general information, not legal advice; your contract and local law apply.
  • The PDF supports Latin characters only.
  • In Germany and some other countries a resignation must be signed by hand: print and sign the PDF.

Frequently asked questions

How much notice should I give?

What your contract says. In the US two weeks is customary; in the UK one month is common; UAE contracts set 30 to 90 days.

Do I have to give a reason for resigning?

No. A short, polite letter without a reason is perfectly professional.

Should I email or print my resignation letter?

Email is usually fine, but some countries (such as Germany) and some contracts require a signed paper letter. Keep a copy either way.
