The Experience Letter is a fundamental employment document in the Indian corporate ecosystem, serving as official proof of an individual's professional history with an organization. This document is typically requested when an employee leaves an organization or needs to verify their employment history for various purposes such as new job applications, visa processing, or further education. The Experience Letter includes crucial information about the employment period, roles, responsibilities, and professional conduct, making it a vital document for career progression. In India, employers are generally obligated to provide this document upon request, and its format and content are influenced by standard business practices and various employment-related legislation including the Indian Contract Act, 1872.
