A letter of thanks for approval of leave should be brief and concise, rather than turned into a lengthy ramble that misses the point.
Your boss will have lots of tasks, correspondence and demands to answer to. Receiving a brief three or four line thank-you will provide him with a pleasing distraction from his routine tasks. Granting leave can sometimes be problematic and getting a note of thanks will be appreciated and helps develop the bond between staff and management.
Your boss will know that the leave is important to you, a short message of thanks will be noted and confirms that granting the leave was the right decision.
A typed letter of thanks may look too formal to some, but others will look on it as you showing a bit of effort and acting in a professional manner. As long as you show your thanks in the right type of language either format will be equally acceptable.
