• Invitation letters differ from cover letters. A cover letter is usually written by the applicant; an invitation letter is usually written by the host.

• Business invitation letters commonly include the host company name, address, signature, traveller name, occupation, passport or ID number, arrival and departure dates, purpose of meetings or events, and how expenses will be covered.
• Personal invitation letters commonly include the host name, address, contact details, signature, traveller name, passport or ID number, dates of travel, visit itinerary, and expense arrangements.
• Letters are usually addressed to the relevant immigration office, embassy, consulate, or visa application centre.
