Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to request the closure of my bank account with your branch. The account details are as follows:

Account Number: [Account Number]

Account Holder Name: [Your Name]

Type of Account: [Checking/Savings]

I would like to inform you that I have recently opened an account with another bank and will be transferring all my funds to that account. Therefore, I kindly request you to close my account as soon as possible and issue me the final statement of my account.

I would also like to inform you that I have no outstanding dues or pending transactions on my account. I have also removed all the linked services such as ATM card, cheque book, and internet banking from my account.

I would appreciate it if you could confirm the closure of my account via email or mail. Please let me know if there are any further steps required from my end to complete the account closure process.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

It's important to be specific about the account number, and type of account. Also, it's good to mention any outstanding dues or pending transactions, or linked services that needs to be closed or removed. Don't forget to ask for the confirmation of account closure via email or mail and also ask if there is any further steps required from your end.
