You may download, personalize and otherwise modify this free sample salary requirement
letter or just keep it handy as an example to write your own. It's an RTF file
format, which is compatible with most word processors (such as Microsoft® Word)
and safe to download.
But first, please read the Important notice below, which includes
the download link.
Because of differences in the way that Web browsers and word processors display
pages, the sample salary requirement letter format displayed below differs slightly
from the download version created in a word processor.
If you copy and paste this sample salary requirement letter format from your
screen instead of downloading it, the format might not stay intact.
This sample salary requirement letter format is in full-block, business-letter
style. But when emailing salary requirement letters, they don't necessarily need
to be quite as formally formatted.
For example, you could delete the letterhead, date and recipient's address if
you want, because your email application will automatically include informal
equivalents. It's a good idea to keep at least the salutation (Dear...)
and complimentary close (Sincerely...), but you can change them to your
preference.

Dear [Recipient's name]:
This is in reply to your request for a salary requirement letter.
In lieu of providing my salary requirement at this time, may I first
schedule an interview to learn more about the job? I'd be happy to discuss
my salary requirement toward the end of the interview. It is negotiable,
depending on job duties and benefits.
Thanks for contacting me. I hope to hear from you soon regarding an interview.
The best way to reach me is through my mobile phone, by dialing [area code,
number].
Sincerely,
