# Virtual office

> A registered Philippine business address for your company's filings, without leasing physical space.

Last updated: 2026-07-08 · [HTML version](https://docs.korp.ph/virtual-office) · Korp Docs

A corporation needs a **registered address in the Philippines** — it goes on your SEC filings and it's where official correspondence is sent. If you're incorporating from abroad and don't have a Philippine office yet, that's a problem a lease shouldn't have to solve on day one.

A **virtual office** covers it: a real business address your company uses for its registered address, without renting physical space.

> Korp provides the virtual office today — it's part of your setup from day one. We're also building it into your dashboard, so you'll soon manage it there. Questions in the meantime? [Talk to an expert](https://calendar.app.google/khab5J3GVK3csjo98).

## Why it comes up

You can't incorporate without an address. The SEC requires a registered office address in the Philippines, and government agencies use it to reach your company. For foreign founders who haven't set up locally, the virtual office is usually the first piece of the setup to sort out, because everything else references it.

<!-- TODO(review): Operational specifics not yet verified — do not fill in without confirmation:
  - Mail handling: is correspondence scanned/forwarded, and how quickly?
  - Can the same address be used for BIR and LGU registration, or only for SEC filings?
  - Are there restrictions for regulated industries that require a physical office (and which ones)?
Once confirmed, add a short "What the service covers" section here. -->

## How Korp handles it

Two tiers, depending on where you want the address:

- **Registered address (non-CBD)** — first 3 months included in your package, then **PHP 7,500 per quarter**.
- **Registered address in Makati (CBD)** — add **PHP 3,000 per quarter** on top, if you want a central business district address on your company documents.

## What you'll see in your dashboard

*A preview of what we're building. The service itself is available today — it's set up with your incorporation.*

The virtual office will appear in your dashboard as part of your company profile:

- **Your registered address**, exactly as it appears on your SEC filings, ready to copy into contracts and forms.
- **Address documents** — the proof-of-address paperwork agencies and banks ask for, downloadable when you need it.
- **Your plan and renewal** — which tier you're on, when the next quarter renews, and a one-click upgrade to the Makati (CBD) address if you want it on your documents.

<!-- TODO(review): Once mail-handling specifics are confirmed (scanning/forwarding, turnaround), add a "Your mail" item here describing how correspondence shows up in the dashboard. -->

**What we need from you:** nothing to set it up — it's part of your incorporation. If you later lease a real office, you update your registered address, and we handle the filings that come with the change.
