The virtual office is a type of service that allows companies to maintain a physical address in Kiev or in another city in Ukraine, all while maintaining a flexible workspace and a remote work business model.
This option is suited to companies across many different industries, particularly those who operate in the services industry or who have international clients. Companies who are involved in manufacturing in Ukraine can still set up a virtual office in a chosen city, and at the same time maintain a regular manufacturing facility, or warehouse, as may be needed in their business sector.
