ELoI stands for External Letter of Intent.
This is a letter sent from the Kingdom Office to the Laurel-Sovereign-of-Arms Office
(Society-Level Herald) and the SCA College of Arms containing the heraldic submissions
the Kingdom wishes to register. 

The ELoI is created from the results of the internal review process the Kingdom does on the submissions it receives. Each month the Laurel-of-Arms Office collects External Letters from the various Kingdoms and lets the College of Arms know which letters will be decided on during a particular Laurel Decision Meeting.

The SCA College of Arms is made up of the Laurel Officers (Laurel, Wreath, Pelican and Laurel-Clerk), Society Herald Office staff members and Society-Level commenters. The College of Arms will give the submissions on these letters further review, checking for any missed conflicts or other problems and, where possible, locating additional documentation to allow a submission to be registered. Because there is a tremendously large number of items (usually between 300 and 500 a month), the College of Arms has 3 months to review the submissions, find conflicts, locate additional documentation and send a report back with comments on the submissions to the Laurel Office.

At the end of 3 months, when the Laurel Office has received information from the College of Arms, the submissions are reviewed and ruled on. Submissions with problems are returned and submissions which are accepted as free of conflicts and problems are registered and recorded in the official SCA Armorial and Ordinary listings. The Laurel-of-Arms office then creates a letter indicating the results of their review which can take another two or three months for proofreading. A letter of notification both for accepted and returned devices is called a LoAR (Letter of Acceptance and Return).
