RATED EXCELLENT

Not all virtual offices are created equal

When you're running things yourself, a virtual office should make life easier, not give you more admin to deal with. Before choosing a provider, it's worth checking what's included, how your post is handled, how easy it is to manage your account and whether you're tied into a long contract. Here's how some of the options compare.

How a virtual office works for you

Every Virtually There customer gets access to the Portal, making it easy to manage your post, services and account online.

If you’re set up as a limited company, you can also add a Registered Office Address. With it, you can:

  • Use your address for Companies House
  • Keep it separate from your trading address, or use the same one for both
  • Complete the ID and AML verification needed to activate your address
  • Add it to your existing Virtual Office subscription for one combined monthly price

Add a Registered Office

Sole trader or limited company?

What you need from your virtual office depends on how your business is set up. The main difference is whether you need an official Registered Office Address for Companies House.

SOLE TRADER

You can use your Virtual Office as your business address on your website, invoices and client communications, helping you keep your home and business addresses separate.

As a sole trader, you don’t need a Registered Office Address for Companies House.

LIMITED COMPANY

You can use your Virtual Office as your day-to-day business address and add a Registered Office Address for Companies House.

Both can be managed through your Virtually There account, so your business address, post and services stay together in one place.

Not sure which option you need? Get in touch and we’ll help.

Built to keep your home address private

Working from home doesn’t mean you have to use your home address for your business. A virtual office gives you a professional business address while keeping your home address separate from your day-to-day business communications.

  • Every subscriber is ID and AML checked before their address becomes active
  • Incoming mail is scanned and stored securely in your Portal, accessible only to you
  • Keep your home address separate from your client-facing business correspondence

FAQs to help you choose

Do I need to be a limited company to use a virtual office?

No. Sole traders can use a Virtual Office address on invoices, contracts and their website. The Registered Office Address add-on is only relevant if you’re set up as a limited company.

Will my home address still show up anywhere?

A Virtual Office gives you a separate business address that you can use on your website, invoices and client communications instead of your home address. There may still be circumstances where you’re required to provide your residential address, but it doesn’t need to be your everyday client-facing business address.

How is my mail handled and kept confidential?

Post covered by your subscription is scanned and uploaded to your Virtually There Portal, where only you can access it. You get 10 free mail scans a month, with a small fee for anything after that. Companies House and HMRC post can only be processed if you have our Registered Office Address service.

Can I use a virtual office if I work from home?

Yes. You can continue working from home while using your Virtually There address as your business address. Your post is handled through your virtual office and made available through your Portal, so you don’t need to work from the address itself.

What happens if I change from a sole trader to a limited company?

You can continue using your Virtual Office and add a Registered Office Address if you need one for Companies House. Both services can then be managed through your Virtually There account.
