What is a virtual office?
A virtual office is a postal address that a company can rent from an approved business centre. Thanks to this virtual office, the company has a legal address and a letterbox, without having to buy a ‘physical’ workspace (a real office) that it doesn’t need for its business. At Office Hof, this rental can be accompanied by various services such as the reception and transfer of parcels and mail, a telephone exchange, the provision of a meeting room, etc.
A virtual office to domicile your business
In Belgium, there are three solutions available to company directors looking for a registered office for their business:
- Own a premises where you can domicile your business – indeed, you are not allowed to house a business from a rented flat.
- Rent a real office – if the manager wants to have a physical space for his business and/or employees.
- Rent a virtual office from an approved organisation such as Office Hof – if you only need a legal address to develop your business.
Why rent a virtual office rather than a real one?
Today, many professions can be carried out without the need for a physical office, which would cost much more than a virtual one. Are you self-employed, don’t have any employees and don’t need a real workspace for your business? Then a virtual office is the ideal solution for hosting your business. Are you the manager of a company based abroad and want to develop your business in Belgium through a branch office? Then a virtual office could be the solution for you.
