What is an appointment letter?

An appointment letter is issued after a candidate accepts an offer and joins the company, formally confirming the employment relationship — designation, compensation, reporting structure, probation period, and notice period — as the definitive record of the terms of employment.

Appointment letter vs offer letter — what's the difference?

An offer letter is sent before joining, extending the job subject to conditions like background verification. An appointment letter is issued on or around the joining date, confirming the employee has officially joined and formalizing the complete terms of employment.

Is this legally binding?

This generates a standard-format appointment letter suitable for most employment confirmations. For anything with legal weight — detailed benefits, non-compete clauses, or statutory disclosures — have your HR or legal team review the final wording before issuing it.
