# Best virtual office providers in Frankfurt compared > The best virtual office in Frankfurt depends on what you need from the address. **Regus** has the widest Frankfurt network; **Satellite Office** and **CONTORA** hold landmark addresses in the banking district (_Bankenviertel_); **Office Club** suits founders who want a coworking base; **Agendis** offers a serviced address with reception and secretary support; and **Olea** offers landmark banking-district addresses – on Neue Mainzer Straße, at the TaunusTurm and the Marienturm – bought online, with a digital mailbox, on-demand workspace, no deposit and no minimum term, from €199/month. ## What is a virtual office, and what makes a Frankfurt address legally valid? A virtual office (_virtuelles Büro_) gives your business a real Frankfurt street address (_Geschäftsadresse_) – usable for your _Handelsregister_ entry, _Impressum_ and correspondence – plus mail handling and on-demand access to meeting rooms, without renting a physical office. It only works for registration if the address is a genuine, staffed _ladungsfähige Anschrift_: a real location where you can actually be reached and served documents. A P.O. box (_Postfach_) or a name-only forwarding service won’t pass. For the underlying rules, see our guides to [what a ladungsfähige Anschrift is](https://oleaoffice.com/en/resources/guides/ladungsfaehige-anschrift) and [what a business address in Germany is](https://oleaoffice.com/en/resources/guides/geschaeftsadresse). ## Which Frankfurt authority do you register with? Two different authorities handle two different things, and founders often mix them up: - **Commercial register (_Handelsregister_):** for companies seated in Frankfurt this is kept at a single court – the **Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main** acting as _Registergericht_ (Gerichtsstraße 2, 60313 Frankfurt am Main). Every Frankfurt GmbH and UG is entered here, and entries can be viewed free at [handelsregister.de](https://www.handelsregister.de). - **Trade registration (_Gewerbeanmeldung_):** unlike Berlin’s 12 borough offices, Frankfurt has **a single citywide trade office** – the **_Ordnungsamt – Gewerberegister_** (Kleyerstraße 86, 60326 Frankfurt am Main) – for the whole city. A virtual office can be used for a _Gewerbeanmeldung_ when it provides a genuine business or administrative address. If the business has other permanent operating sites, these may need to be registered separately, subject to the Frankfurt _Gewerberegister’s_ requirements. The Frankfurt address does not by itself determine where the company is taxed. Your competent _Finanzamt_ and _Gewerbesteuer_ municipality depend on where the company is actually managed – its _Ort der Geschäftsleitung_ – and whether it has a _Betriebsstätte_. One thing to budget for: Frankfurt’s _Gewerbeanmeldung_ fee is a published €36 including the written certificate (_Gewerbeschein_), or €28 if you don’t need the certificate. > **Frankfurt am Main is not Frankfurt (Oder)** They are two different cities in two different states. This guide is about **Frankfurt am Main** in Hesse – register with the Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main and the city’s _Ordnungsamt – Gewerberegister_, not with the authorities in Frankfurt (Oder) in Brandenburg.

It starts at €199/month with no setup fee, deposit or minimum term (15% off on annual), and you buy and manage everything online, including compliance checks.

Prices start from €94/month, though most central Frankfurt locations cost more, and the headline climbs further once you add setup fees and mail charges.

It’s the pick if you want a recognised name and a business address backed by workspace across the most Frankfurt locations. - Starting price: €94/month (monthly) - Extra fees: €79 setup fee + mail pickup fees - Minimum contract: Monthly - Mail scanning cost: €30–40/month - Digital mailbox: No - Workspace access: Yes - Online checkout: Yes - Frankfurt locations: 23 - Best for: A recognised name and workspace across the most Frankfurt locations. - Watch out: Setup fee, mail pickup and scanning charges, and prices that vary by location. ### Satellite Office – landmark addresses at Opernplatz and the banking district Satellite Office offers addresses in landmark Frankfurt buildings – Opernplatz 14 by the Alte Oper and the Villa Sander on Mainzer Landstraße in the banking district – with staffed reception and access to business lounges. Its virtual office, valid for company registration (_ladungsfähiger Firmensitz_), starts at €199/month and is bought through an enquiry form, with a €99 setup fee and a three-month deposit, and includes a Frankfurt phone number and company sign. A cheaper €149/month tier is business-address-only, for _Impressum_ and correspondence, and not valid for the _Handelsregister_. - Starting price: €199/month (monthly) - Extra fees: €99 setup fee + from €597 deposit (3 months’ fees) - Minimum contract: Monthly - Mail scanning cost: €39/month - Digital mailbox: No - Workspace access: Yes - Online checkout: No - Frankfurt locations: 2 - Best for: A landmark Frankfurt address with staffed reception. - Watch out: Cheaper €149 business address tier isn’t valid for the _Handelsregister_; setup fee, deposit and no online checkout. ### CONTORA Office Solutions – landmark towers in the banking district CONTORA Office Solutions specialises in landmark Frankfurt addresses – the TaunusTurm on Taunustor, the Marienturm on Taunusanlage, and the WINX Tower at MainTor on Neue Mainzer Straße – with staffed offices, meeting rooms and concierge service.

For a _Gewerbeanmeldung_, it can provide the business or administrative address, while other permanent operating sites may need separate registration under the Frankfurt _Gewerberegister’s_ requirements. 2. **Can you judge the service before you pay?** The buying experience is often a useful signal. A clear offer, transparent pricing and terms, and an easy online purchase usually show how a provider will handle your mail and support later. 3. **Is it fair value once you add everything up?** The headline price rarely tells the whole story. Some providers advertise a cheaper postal or business address tier intended only for correspondence, while the virtual office needed for a _Handelsregister_ entry costs more. Make sure the comparison uses the right price, then factor in setup fees, deposits, mail charges and minimum terms. 4. **Does the address give the right impression?** "Best" isn’t one address. The banking district (_Bankenviertel_) around Neue Mainzer Straße and Taunusanlage reads as finance and establishment; the Westend reads as affluent and professional; the Bahnhofsviertel is central and mixed. Choose the district that matches how you want to be seen. 5. **Is there workspace when you need it?** If you’ll ever meet clients or work on-site, check there are meeting rooms or desks you can book, at the address you’re buying. ## How Olea fits Olea brings those five questions together on a landmark banking-district address, with a service model the other tower providers don’t offer online. - **Legally valid:** a real, staffed _ladungsfähige Anschrift_ that’s valid for your _Handelsregister_, _Impressum_ and more (see [what a virtual office is valid for](https://oleaoffice.com/en/resources/guides/virtual-office-business-address-germany)). - **Bought and managed online:** complete the purchase and compliance checks online – no enquiry form or sales call, where the other landmark addresses sell on request. - **Straightforward terms:** from €199/month with a digital mailbox included, no setup fee, no deposit and no minimum term (15% off on annual), so there’s no upfront deposit to find. - **A Bankenviertel address:** the MainTor/WINX Tower on Neue Mainzer Straße, the TaunusTurm and the Marienturm, putting your company in Frankfurt’s financial core. - **Workspace when you need it:** meeting rooms and desks you can book on-demand across the locations. ### Olea’s Frankfurt locations Live Frankfurt locations with prices: [Frankfurt page](https://oleaoffice.com/en/frankfurt) · [locations.md](https://oleaoffice.com/locations.md) For what’s included, the mail options and how setup works, see our [Frankfurt business address page](https://oleaoffice.com/en/frankfurt). ## **Find a real, reachable German address** Get a real German business address for your _Handelsregister_, _Impressum_ and more.

It depends on the impression and access you want. The banking district (_Bankenviertel_) around Neue Mainzer Straße and Taunusanlage suits finance, consulting and businesses that want a landmark address; the Westend feels established and professional; City West and the Mertonviertel are more practical business locations; and an airport address suits internationally mobile teams. ### Do I need to live or work in Frankfurt to use a Frankfurt business address? No. You can use a genuine, serviceable Frankfurt address even if you live or work elsewhere, provided the provider allows you to use it and you can reliably be reached there. The address does not by itself move your _Betriebsstätte_ or _Ort der Geschäftsleitung_ to Frankfurt. ### Can I move an existing GmbH or UG to a Frankfurt virtual office? Yes. Once you have the new address and the provider’s use-of-address documents, your notary can file the change with the _Handelsregister_. You should then update your _Impressum_ and notify the _Gewerbeamt_, _Finanzamt_, bank and other services that hold your business address. ### Does a Frankfurt virtual office change my Finanzamt or Gewerbesteuer municipality? Not by itself. Those depend on where the company is actually managed and whether it has a _Betriebsstätte_, not simply on the public business address it uses. A virtual office can receive your _Finanzamt_ correspondence without automatically changing where the business is taxed. ### Is a banking-district address worth paying more for? It can be if the address forms part of how clients, investors or partners judge the business. A _Bankenviertel_ tower creates a different impression from an outer-district or airport address, but it does not make the address more legally valid. Compare the building, workspace, mail service and total cost rather than paying for the postcode alone. ## Definitions - **virtuelles Büro** – A virtual office: a service that provides a real business address with mail handling and on-demand workspace, without renting a full-time office. - **Geschäftsadresse** – The official German business address a company uses for its registrations, public records and correspondence. - **ladungsfähige Anschrift** – A real street address where a person can genuinely be reached and served legal documents in person, as required for a Handelsregister entry and Impressum. - **Handelsregister** – The German commercial register, kept for Frankfurt companies at the Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main acting as Registergericht, in which companies such as a GmbH or UG record their official business address. - **Gewerbeanmeldung** – The German trade registration, filed in Frankfurt with the single citywide Ordnungsamt – Gewerberegister rather than a borough office. - **Bankenviertel** – Frankfurt’s banking district around Neue Mainzer Straße and Taunusanlage, home to the high-rise addresses associated with the city’s financial sector. ## Notes - Prices and terms can change so confirm the current details with each provider.
