Guide to a very neat mailing address and virtual office platform in Singapore
If your business is expanding or starting out in Singapore one of the key (marketing) features will be a mailing address and a business address.
A prominent address, preferable one that does not look like a PO box or an off the rack virtual office service, add to credibility and professional set-up of your operations. Unfortunately the service level and reliability of many solutions is often lacking resulting in lost mails, no overview of your mailings or obviously well known letterbox addresses.
Some key features to look out for are:
A PROFESSIONAL REGISTERED ADDRESS
A permanent Singapore address to receive postal mail. Whether you need to establish a local business address for your new company or want a reliable mail services while you travel. A good mailing solution makes it easy for you to access your postal mail from anywhere. - Add content about CBD and accessibility,
Business Address
Singapore law requires all local companies to have a registered Singapore address. A virtual office solution can act as the official corporate and operating address for your company, providing one permanent address for all business communications. Use your Singapore address for government registration or on business cards, company letterhead or to register a website.
Personal Address
You have one Singapore address where you can receive mail and packages everyday - even when you're traveling. Choose to forward your mail to any local or international address and get all packages delivered right to your door, no matter how many times you move.
The service should accept mails and signs for packages everyday, so you never miss a delivery and you always know what's arrived.
AUTOMATIC EMAIL ALERTS
Stay updated from anywhere
The service should ensure that you never miss a tax document or official bank statement by notifying you of every delivery - including letters, documents and packages. Automatic email alerts let you know that something has arrived, when it arrived and you can log into the system to see more details. A online system allows you to view a scanned .jpeg copy of the front and back of each envelope, so it's easy to see what's been delivered.
Easy decision making
Good systems can access a full-color scanned copy of the front and back of each envelope, so you can tell the difference between junk mail and important statements. Decide to open the envelope and scan contents, forward the mail to a new address, or trash it forever.
See a complete history
Tracking of deliveries is important, so you always have a record of what was sent and when it arrived. A copy of each scanned envelope is always available - even if you chose to trash the mail for good.
SINGAPORE MAIL STORAGE
Save or forward your mail
Ability to pick up your mail in person or have it forwarded to a new address. Pongo Post is the most convenient and secure way to receive postal mail.

Looking for a representable, productive and simply stylish co-working and shared office space in Singapore. PlusConcept Space on the trendy Purvis Street right next to the Raffles hotel is open to take applications for "workers"
After a few months of soft launch with a very positive response and a already great team for members, we are open to take a few more application for a desk rental on short and mid term basis at this wonderful shophouse gem in one of the best streets in Singapore. We are open to all looking for a simple, trendy, working and productive work-space at a very central and easy to reach location. The place is surrounded by great eateries food, designer stores and Singapore landmarks.
PlusConcept Space evolved from the idea of creating a prefect environment for individuals and businesses looking for a very individual and exclusive setting to kick of their business or to achieve productivity you can get at home offices, coffee shops or 'buzzy' youngster co-working communities. PlusConcept Space focusses on the basic co-working essentials (good working environment, desks, fast internet, utilities) with a rather exclusive shared office proposition (your own keys, 24/7 access, security, corporate labelling and a professional working environment). The traditional shophouse structure adds to the individuality and ambience of the co-working space. During its soft launch the PlusConcept shared office has been featured in various magazines.
Members are able to rent a desk on a very fair cost basis with discounts for multiple desks or usage from 6 months onwards. The usage packages and rules are simple and straight forward with monthly rentals as the main offering and a few plans catering to people travelling a lot or out of town visitors for business development in Singapore.
The user feedback has been very positive so far: "PlusConcept Space has everything going for it. It’s centrally located in a charming little street surrounded by great amenities : printing companies, banks, post office and stationary shops, all within 5 minutes walk. Not to mention the great eateries where one is constantly spoilt for choices. However away from the hustle and bustle the office is an oasis of peace. It is very well maintained, and if I may say spotless! We never felt want of anything and I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet co-sharing space that is affordable and that runs efficiently."
"I have found the plus concept working space on Purvis Street the perfect environment to get things done. It’s generally quiet and has all the infrastructure I require. The building has character and I feel connected to the area’s rich history. A wide variety of excellent lunch options nearby also helps."
PlusConcept Space is ready to take in some additional members and welcomes contacts and applications. Visits can be arranged at any time. --- End ---
Notes from our >workers< - Thanks
Over in Plus Concept , I feel at HOME .... A safe place to work , interact and the energy here is BLISS. Everyone here seemed not to know each other , but somehow, everyone feel connected . Lots of respect around with no judgement , prejudice nor sub-standard treatment. Honestly , this is my first time in a shared office with people from different businesses. I used to have my own office space and as far as table space is concerned, I was having a space when I was in property company. And seriously ,this place is really cool.
+Concept has everything going for it. It's centrally located in a charming little street surrounded by great amenities : printing companies, banks, post office and stationary shops, all within 5 minutes walk. Not to mention the great eateries where one is constantly spoilt for choices. However away from the hustle and bustle the office is an oasis of peace. It is very well maintained, and if I may say spotless! We never felt want of anything and Markus had been most pleasant to deal with. He couldn't be less intrusive while more accommodating. We eventually had to leave the oasis in search of our own office space. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet co-sharing space that is highly affordable and that runs efficiently.

The central location, good rates and choice of office size were all factors in Plusconcept. The area has been well looked after by the very down to earth, helpful and flexible landlord. I highly recommend Plusconcept to any SME trying to set up in a centralized location
Markus provided the best possible rates and service for my start-up business space. He is very knowledgeable about doing business in Singapore and offers more than just a space to start up a business.
He's been very resourceful with his advice and insight into become a successful business owner in Singapore.
