what are formal and informal letters?

Formal letters: These letters include applications, letters to editors, official letters, letters to and from organizations, government departments etc. These letters have an objective or business-like style of writing.

Informal letters: These letters include letters to parents, relatives, friends etc. These letters have an easy and conversational language.

While writing formal letters, one should ensure that it is not too extensive. These letters are supposed to be short and to-the-point.

FORMAL LETTER : These letters are written to secretaries, editors, etc. Actually most of the times we write formal letters to editors when we go in higher standards.These letters have a formal or objective style of writing

INFORMAL LETTERS : These letters are written to friends, family members, etc.When we are wrinting formal letters they should not be very extensive and should be short and to-the-point as anand edwin wrote.
