Notice Writing

Points To Remember:
1. Write the name of the organisation/institution/office issuing the notice.
2. The word ‘NOTICE’ is always written under the name of the
organisation/institution/office.
3. Date of issuing notice is written on the left-hand side.
4. Heading/subject should be eye-catching, brief and precise.
5. The content must include complete information. It must include the 7 Ws of writing
(who, what, where, why, when, in what way and for whom).
6. The purpose of the notice should be very clear.
7. The name and designation of the issuing authority should be mentioned.
8. The language used must be lucid and must be written in the third person i.e. pronouns
like I, you, me, mine, your, our etc. should not be used.
9. Choice of tense will depend on the nature of the notice e.g. in a notice announcing an
event, future time reference will be used more than any other tense forms.
10. The notice should be presented within a box.

Format for Notice writing


The Notice Writing Format should include NAME OF THE INSTITUTION / ISSUING AUTHORITY / NOTICE /
TITLE, DATE, and WRITER’S NAME WITH DESIGNATION.

4. BODY-Date/time/duration/Place/Venue (when and where?)
5. Authorized signatory: Name and signature (contact details)

Success Criteria :
1. •Be precise and to the point. The ideal length of notice is 50 words, so precise language
is appreciated.
2. •It is a formal form of communication so the language used should be formal as well.
3. •Keep the sentences short and use simple words.
4. •Use passive voice as far as possible.
5. •Present your notices in a proper format in a box. The presentation should be neat.
