What is a virtual address?

A virtual address is a remote, real physical address, to which you receive mail & packages. Virtual addresses work just like any other mailing address, with the added benefit of a virtual mailbox. So once a piece of mail or package arrives at your virtual address, from there it can be accessed via your virtual mailbox account. You will get an image of the exterior of your mail item, uploaded into your account. From there, just request a mail scan (for envelopes,) or shipping (for packages.) Your virtual address comes with additional features, such as free check deposits, shredding of your junk mail and shredding of any mail item you do not want to keep. Free storage is also available, for up to 180 days, depending on the plan you select. Hard copies of your mail can be secured at our warehouse, until you have that item scanned or shipped to your location. For shipping requests, depending on where you are located (and especially if you are overseas,) you can expect to receive packages with discounted shipping rates of up to 80%.

How does a virtual address work?

A virtual address works just like any other mailing address, in that you can receive mail and packages at that address. The added benefit and primary difference with a typical mailing address, is the virtual mailbox technology that comes with it. This allows you to see & manage all your mail online any time of the day, and from any place in the world. Once a mailing item arrives for you, you will get an e-mail notification with an exterior image of the mail item. Log into your account, and you can request mail scans, shipping or shredding of that item. Mail scans of your envelope, means that we can open the envelope on your behalf, and send you a digital copy of the actual letter inside. If you receive checks, you can even request that we deposit it to the bank of your preference, for free. For businesses, virtual addresses are an easy and cheaper way to register a business and receive important documents at that address (IRS notices etc.) Larger companies can also benefit from our virtual address solution. We have handled mail for expats of large corporations such as Netflix, Disney and Chubb. Once you sign up with us, you will be given a virtual address where all your mail & packages will be automatically sent to. In order to enable this feature, you will need to complete a change of address with the USPS so that they can forward mail from your original mailing address, to your new virtual address. The best part is you won’t need to notify anyone about your new virtual address, unless you want to. Contacts (personal, or business,) can keep sending mail to your original address and all that will simply get forwarded to your virtual address. The USPS has created this functionality whenever someone decides to have a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA,) manage mail on their behalf.

How to setup a virtual US address

From there, you will need to upload 2 forms of ID and send us a notarized 1583 form and you’re all set. Use your virtual address for personal mail management, business mail management or even business registration.

Can I use a virtual address for an LLC?

Yup. Our business plans have been created with business owners and LLC’s in mind. Virtual addresses work just like any other real physical street address, with the added benefit of being able to view and manage all your mail online. Not only do we have thousands of business customers under our belts, but large companies like Netflix & Chubb, use our virtual address for their expat employees.

What is the difference between a physical address and a virtual address?

When you get a physical mailbox for your mail (e.g UPS or the Post Office) these are not real street addresses but rather PO boxes. If you get a physical office space that is used purely for the registration of a business or in order to get mail, that means you need to drive to the location once in a while to pickup your mail. With a virtual address for business, you get to view all your mail online. Whenever a piece of mail or package comes in, you get pictures of those items into your virtual mailbox. If you need something scanned or shipped, you can make a request from within your account with just a click. US Global Mail is the oldest company (20+ years in business) in the space & offers the best virtual address service you can get!

What do I need to sign up for a virtual address?

All you need is 2 forms of ID, a notarized 1583 form and completing a change of address with the USPS. We take care of the rest. We have even gone ahead and created an easy to use on-boarding platform that allows you to upload all these documents within minutes.
