Abstract

State management documents usually refer to terminologies, such as: legal normative documents, individual documents, common administrative documents, and so on. Each type of documents possesses different characteristics and functions. This categorisation helps offices establish and promulgate documents in a correct manner and authority, along with these documents being applied into the right purposes and subjects in practice. Official correspondence is considered common administrative documents which are popularly and regularly used in state administrative management activities, playing a crucial role in contacting, exchanging information between state offices, state offices and other organisations, and people. However, the fact is that many documents contain common rules of behaviour as a legal normative one or have direct instructive contents of another one. The questions; therefore, are that what type of documents official correspondence belongs to in the system of state administrative management documents, and whether official correspondence has legal value or not.
