The King is shown almost all of his correspondence on a daily basis by one of his Private Secretaries, and he takes a keen interest in the letters he receives.
You can write to His Majesty at the following address:
His Majesty The King
Buckingham Palace
London SW1A 1AA
If you wish to write a formal letter, you can open with ‘Sir’ and close the letter with the form ‘I have the honour to be, Sir, Your Majesty’s humble and obedient servant’.
This traditional approach is by no means obligatory. You should feel free to write in whatever style you feel comfortable.
As a constitutional Monarch, His Majesty does not intervene in any political or personal disputes, and letters asking him to do so will receive a standard reply to this effect. For security reasons, the Correspondence Team are unable to accept any unsolicited gifts which are sent to The King.
