...por lo que no tengo inconveniente en extender la presente carta de recomendación.
Mi duda principal es si la gramática es correcta: I have no inconvenience in issuing (inconvenince in + -ing). En los diccionarios de collocations no aparece con la preposición IN.
O es correcto: I have no inconvenience to issue?
¡Gracias!

I find it appropriate to extend
por lo que no tengo inconveniente en extender la present carta de recomendación
... for which I find it appropriate to extend this letter of recommendation.
This is one of those formalities that is as much about culture as language. I usually translate these in the way that I would write it in English preserving the meaning and context of the original

I have no hesitation in issuing....
perhaps this formulation is closer to the original and yet conveys enthusiasm ?!
