Accommodation address for Ltd Co

[northernladuk]

You sure you are cut out to run a business if you're already struggling with an address for it?

If you search on the interweb there are companies who provide virtual address services who will be near you.

Alternatively if you notice a lot of small businesses using an address in your area check to see if it's a virtual office.

The cost varies greatly.

However be aware your trading address and the director's address will still be your home address. This means all HMRC letters etc will come to you. Junk mail for the company will go to that address but junk mail for the director will still come to you.

Looking to possibly start up a small business - can I use some sort of accommodation address for all Ltd Co correspondence?

I'll be working from home, but would rather have a "virtual office" for correspondence.

Previously when I was contracting, I used my accountants' office address for my Ltd Co, so he received all the correspondence.

However, I'm looking to try a number of small ventures so would like my own "letterbox" where I can pick up mail, etc, much like Mail Boxes Etc (Parcel Delivery | Shipping | Bespoke Printing | PO Box | Mail Boxes Etc.) - is this sort of thing permitted to place on Company letterheads, for use with Companies House, etc

If not, any alternatives?

PS prefer not to use accountant's address as its too far away and I'd perfer direct access rather than having to pop into his office every time.

thanks
