Yes, you can—if the Virtual Office meets Google’s requirements. At Bee Ridge Virtual Offices, our Virtual Office Add-On Package includes a unique unit number, temporary signage, lease documentation, and staff availability. These services make it possible to verify your business on Google as either a Storefront or Hybrid Business with a Google-compliant business address listed on Maps and local search.

• You’re provided with a unique suite number that can be verified by Google
• We have onsite staff during business hours (required by Google)
• We provide temporary signage for Google video verification
• We support both Service Area Businesses (SAB) and Hybrid Business models

To stay compliant with USPS regulations, your Advertised Mailing Address should include “PMB#” (e.g., Suite 9, PMB#25). However, for Google Business Profile verification, it’s better to use a business-style format like “Unit 9-25”. This format appears more professional and increases the chance of successful Google verification. Using both address formats helps your business meet both USPS and Google’s requirements.

Yes, Google accepts Hybrid Businesses—those that serve customers at both a physical location and off-site.

Verified businesses gain credibility, can respond to reviews, add photos, post updates, and appear in “near me” searches—making it easier for customers to find and trust your business.

Yes, but only if your virtual office meets Google’s strict verification requirements. The location must include on-site staff during business hours, signage, and the ability to receive clients in person. Bee Ridge Virtual Offices offers a Virtual Office Add-On Package designed to help businesses meet Google’s Storefront or Hybrid business criteria.

Google often uses video verification for Service Area Businesses (SABs), Storefront Businesses (SBs), and Hybrid Businesses (HBs). Each requires a different set of proof, such as signage, workspace access, and service area information. At Bee Ridge Virtual Offices, we provide address support, signage, and documentation to help you meet Google’s verification standards—no matter your business type.
