An attention line in a business letter is used when you want to direct the correspondence to a specific individual or department within an organization, especially when the recipient's title or role is not clear from the address. This helps ensure that the letter reaches the right person promptly. It is particularly useful in larger organizations where mail may go through multiple channels before reaching the intended recipient. Including an attention line can enhance communication efficiency and clarity.
