Category: Business
Registered Office (UK) Ltd
MYCO Works offers registered-office, director and business-address services. Check which services your package includes.
This guide covers two providers: MYCO Works, a division of Registered Office (UK) Ltd, and Your Virtual Office London. It is not a ranking of the whole market. Compare the address services, mail handling and locations offered, then check the provider’s current package terms, charges and eligibility requirements before ordering.
Virtual Office
Your Virtual Office London offers London address services. Check registered-office, director and business-mail coverage.
Who may consider a virtual office
These services may suit businesses looking for a correspondence address separate from their home or working premises. Check whether you need a registered office, a director service address, general business-mail handling or a combination of these services.
What to compare before choosing a provider
Compare the permitted address uses, available location, mail scanning and forwarding arrangements, identity checks, contract terms, renewal charges and any additional fees. Confirm that the selected package covers the correspondence your business expects to receive.
Why this matters for small businesses
An address service is one part of a business setup. Consider it alongside your website, bookkeeping and other administration, and check whether you also need workspace or meeting facilities. Do not assume these are included in an address package.
Compare registered office, service address and mail handling separately
Registered-office and director-address services cover different uses from general business-mail handling. MYCO Works offers separate address services and combined packages, with locations listed in London, Edinburgh and Ipswich. Your Virtual Office London offers London address services; its registered-office service is for companies incorporated in England and Wales. Both providers offer mail scanning and forwarding subject to the service purchased and current terms. Check included mail types, forwarding charges, parcel restrictions and identity requirements before ordering.
Separating business correspondence from a home address
An address service may let you use the provider’s address for specified business correspondence instead of your home address. Check the permitted uses and required registrations. Do not assume that buying a service removes a home address from existing public records.
Check location, mail speed and forwarding costs
Choose an available location that fits the address service you need. Check the provider’s current mail-processing arrangements, scanning options, forwarding charges, parcel limits and procedures for time-sensitive documents. Do not assume that every package includes the same handling or access arrangements.
Connect the address to the wider setup
A business address usually sits alongside company formation, domain registration, website setup, banking, accounting and insurance. Choose a service that fits the full setup workflow rather than treating the address as a separate decision.
