Frequently Asked Questions

Read our FAQ's to see the answers to popular questions that we are asked

Which service do I need?

Each of our individual service and combined package pages explain in detail what each is for and how they work. While we try simplifying our services as much as possible, we realise some terms can seem confusing – especially if you are just starting out.
Our friendly and knowledgeable team at The London Office are happy to help walk you through the order process and answer any questions or queries you have about any of our services.

What ID do I need to provide and where do I upload it?

You are required to supply proof of your ID (passport, driving licence photocard, national identity card, military identity card, residence permit or visa) and proof of address (utility bill, bank statement, mortgage statement, HMRC Notice of Coding) within seven days.
You will be shown where to upload your ID once your order is complete.

How soon can I start using my virtual office address?

As soon as your Know Your Customer (KYC) documents are submitted and verified, you're good to go!

What is a Postal Deposit?

For all services that include receiving business mail, we require a £20 postal deposit to cover the cost of forwarding your business mail on to you.

When you opt for mail forwarding, your business mail is charged at £0.50p per letter (plus the cost of forwarding)

Once your postal deposit runs out, you are required to top it up. We send you a reminder when your postal deposit falls below £5.00
