Question 1

How much does virtual office space in Chicago cost?

Accepted Answer

Alliance virtual office space in Chicago plans start at $49 per month, a fraction of what a Loop or River North commercial lease costs annually. Plans include a Chicago business address, mail handling, and access to meeting rooms when you need them. If you need meeting room hours included, check the Platinum Plus Plan.

Question 2

Can I use a virtual business address in Chicago to register my Illinois LLC?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Illinois requires a physical street address on your Articles of Organization filed with the Secretary of State. The filing fee is $150, and there is no publication requirement. A virtual business address in Chicago from Alliance satisfies this requirement. Illinois also charges a $75 annual report fee every year and a 4.95% flat income tax.

Question 3

What is the difference between a virtual address in Chicago and a PO Box?

Accepted Answer

A PO Box gives you a box number at a post office. It cannot be used for LLC registration in Illinois, will not work for Google Business Profile verification, and does not provide a commercial street address for contracts or client-facing materials. A virtual address in Chicago gives you a real street address at a staffed business center where you can receive mail, book meeting rooms, and use the address on state filings and bank applications. Review terms of use for full service details.

Question 4

What Chicago neighborhoods have Alliance virtual office addresses?

Accepted Answer

Alliance has locations across Chicago, including the Loop near LaSalle Street and the Daley Center, River North along the Chicago River, and near the Magnificent Mile on North Michigan Avenue. Browse all Illinois virtual office locations or explore virtual offices across the United States.

Question 5

Do I need a registered agent for my Illinois LLC?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Illinois requires every LLC to have a registered agent with a physical address in the state where legal documents can be received during business hours. An Alliance Chicago virtual office provides a staffed commercial address that satisfies this requirement. Manage your mail and book meeting rooms through the Alliance app. See how a virtual office supports LLC registration.
