This phrase is like bowing very deeply when you give a letter. It shows great respect. You use it for important people or serious news.
This is a very formal ending for letters. It is more formal than '敬具' (keigu). '敬具' is a standard formal ending for everyone. '謹白' was traditionally used by men. Women used 'かしこ' (kashiko) for a similar very formal ending. '謹白' is much more formal than '草々' (sousou). '草々' is for more casual letters.
Don't use this when you are speaking. It is only for letters. You must use it with a special opening word. For example, you can use "kinkei" with "kinpaku." This word is a very formal closing for letters. It means "Sincerely yours." It is often used by men.
