How do you sign off letter in German?

Here are some common sign-offs for letters in German, along with their level of formality:

Formal:

* Mit freundlichen Grüßen (With kind regards) - This is the most common and neutral sign-off for formal letters.

* Hochachtungsvoll (With high esteem) - This is a very formal sign-off often used for official letters.

* Mit freundlichen Grüßen (With friendly greetings) - This is a less formal version of the above.

* Mit bestem Gruß (With best regards) - This is a slightly more personal and friendly option for formal letters.

Informal:

* Liebe Grüße (Love greetings) - This is often used with friends and family.

* Viele Grüße (Many greetings) - This is a common and versatile sign-off for informal letters.

* Beste Grüße (Best greetings) - This is a slightly more formal version of "Liebe Grüße".

* Alles Gute (All the best) - This is a good choice for wishing someone well.

Other options:

* Freundliche Grüße (Friendly greetings)

* Grüße (Greetings)

Tips:

* Always use a comma after the sign-off.

* The formality of the sign-off should match the tone of the letter.

* If you are unsure which sign-off to use, it is always best to err on the side of formality.

Example:

```

Sehr geehrte/r Frau/Herr [Name],

[...]

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

[Your Name]

```
