# How to Write a Letter to President Trump and Mail It

Write and mail a physical letter to President Donald Trump at the White House. Start with an editable example, preview it, then print and mail it online.

## How it works
1. **Edit the starter letter so it states your own experience and one specific request.** - 
2. **Add an optional signature and preview the exact printable PDF.** - 
3. **Confirm your sender name and return address; the White House destination is already filled in.** - 
4. **Review the mailing service and total price, then pay to have PostalForm print and mail the letter.** -


## Form summary
Write a focused, respectful letter to President Donald J. Trump, preview the exact PDF, and have PostalForm print and mail it to the White House public correspondence address. The destination is prefilled, while every word of the starter letter is yours to edit.

A useful presidential letter usually does three things: identifies the issue in the first paragraph, explains briefly why it matters to you or your community, and ends with one specific request. Include your return address during checkout if you want the correspondence office to have a way to respond.

The White House says its webform is the preferred contact method. It also warns that physical materials delay delivery and may not be accepted when they create a safety concern. Do not include cash, food, glitter, hazardous material, sensitive original documents, or anything threatening or unlawful.

PostalForm is an independent printing and mailing service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Donald J. Trump, the White House, or the United States government. Mailing and carrier tracking show movement of the mailpiece, not personal receipt, readership, or a reply from the President.

## What you need
- The issue or experience you want to describe
- One clear request or point you want the President to consider
- Your sender name and return mailing address
- Respectful, lawful content without prohibited physical materials

## Data collected
- Editable letter body
- Optional signature
- Sender name and return mailing address during checkout

## Where it gets mailed
Mailing destination:
- **President Donald J. Trump**
- The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

## Packet order

- Completed form PDF

## Common mistakes
- Burying the main point instead of stating it in the first paragraph.
- Covering several unrelated issues instead of making one focused request.
- Including sensitive originals, cash, food, glitter, hazardous material, threats, or other prohibited content.
- Assuming Certified Mail or delivery tracking proves that the President personally received or read the letter.
- Expecting physical mail to be faster than the White House contact webform.
