Letter format Bank account Transfer from one Branch to another

A person can make a request to his bank, where he maintains an account, for transfer of his account from one branch of the bank to another.

The account holders make such requests in case they move to other locations because of different reasons viz. transfer of job, shifting to hometown, changing residence, etc.

An organisation may also make such a request in case of change of location of its registered office, corporate office or branch office. Generally, the organisations maintain bank accounts separately for their branch offices.

Here are two templates of letters for requesting the bank to transfer the existing account to another branch of the same bank.
