How do you tell someone an attachment is missing?

A good missing attachment email should politely explain that the file did not come through and ask the sender to resend it.

This tool is specifically for the recipient side of the situation. It helps you notify the original sender that their file was missing, rather than apologizing for forgetting to attach something yourself.


When should you use this type of email?

Use this tool when someone emailed you and referenced an attachment, but the file was not actually included. It works well for work emails, client communication, forms, PDFs, contracts, images, resumes, and other document requests.

The best version is short, polite, and practical. In most cases, it is best to assume the sender simply missed it by accident and ask them to resend it clearly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I assume the sender forgot the attachment?
Yes. In most cases, it’s best to assume it was an accident and keep the tone polite.

Can I ask them to resend it in the same email?
Yes. That is usually the clearest and most helpful approach.

How is this different from an attachment resend email?
This tool is for telling someone their attachment was missing. An attachment resend email is for the sender who is sending the file again.
