Free Experience Letter Generator

Create a formal employment experience letter — with your company's letterhead or without — for a departing employee, in a few guided steps.

An experience letter (sometimes called an employment certificate) confirms that someone worked at a company, in what role, and for how long — it's commonly asked for when applying to a new job, during background verification, for a visa application, or when applying for a loan. CareerCanvas's generator produces a clean, correctly formatted letter from a short form: employee and role details, dates, a performance statement, and the signing authority — with an optional company letterhead (logo, address, contact details and brand color) built in.

Use this tool only to create legitimate employment documentation for employees you are actually authorized to issue letters for. Do not use it to create false or misleading employment records.

3

Add a performance statement

A short note on responsibilities and conduct during employment — or use the suggested wording as a starting point.

Sign & download

Add the signatory's name, designation, date and place, then download a print-ready PDF.

Third-party verification agencies frequently cross-check employment letters against company records.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as a relieving letter?

They're closely related — an experience letter focuses on confirming role, duration and performance, while a relieving letter specifically confirms the employee has been released from their duties. This tool is built for the experience letter format.

Can I add my company's logo and letterhead?

Yes — the letterhead section lets you upload a logo and set your company's address, contact details and a brand color, which appears at the top of the generated letter.

Is a letter generated here legally valid?

The tool produces a correctly formatted document, but legal validity ultimately depends on who signs it and whether they're authorized to issue it on the company's behalf. Always have an authorized signatory review and sign the final letter.

Is it free to generate and download?

Yes, there's no charge for generating or downloading experience letters.

Can I save a draft and come back later?

Yes, once you're signed in your draft is saved to your account automatically as you fill it in.
