         RE:   Hatteras Multi-Strategy TEI Fund, L.P. (the "Registrant")
               (1940 Act Registration No. 811-21665)
               ------------------------------------------------------------


Ladies and Gentlemen:

Please accept for filing on behalf of the above-referenced Registrant, this
letter requesting that you please disregard the Form N-CSR electronic
submissions submitted on June 9, 2006 and June 16, 2006, respectively, via the
EDGAR System (Accession Nos. 0000935069-06-001700 and 0000935069-06-001731,
respectively).

The financial printer erroneously submitted the above-referenced filings via the
EDGAR System under the incorrect registrant. The intended Form N-CSR filing will
follow in a subsequent N-CSR amendment submission.

Questions and comments relating to this filing can be addressed to the
undersigned at (617) 338-4478.

Thank you for your attention.

Sincerely,

/s/ Melissa Noyes
