Request a Letter
The Office of Governor Stein can provide letters of recognition for special events and occasions held in the state of North Carolina. Please note that due to the volume of requests the Governor’s Office receives, we are unable to process letters honoring people who do not reside in North Carolina.
We currently require that all requests for letters must be received at least 90 days before the event date.
Thank you for your understanding.
Upon completion of your request, you will receive a confirmation email containing a case number (ID-XXXX). Please refer to this case number when contacting our office about your request. If you don’t receive a confirmation email with this case number, your request was not properly submitted to our office.
We do not take submissions for awards via email or by phone.
Letter Guidelines
Requests for greetings are not renewed annually and must be made each year.
Background information and event details must be provided for letters intended for welcome or greeting, and for letters congratulating a group, organization, or company on an event or achievement.
The Governor’s Office reserves the right to approve or decline any request and to edit any drafted material for final wording.
