How to change your business location on Google Maps

If the pin is in the wrong place, customers end up on the wrong street. How to fix it from your listing.

·3 min read·Leer en español

It happens a lot on urbanisations and new streets: the address is written correctly but the pin lands on another block. Customers follow the directions and cannot find you.

How to fix it

  • Sign in to your Business Profile with the account that manages it.
  • Tap «Edit profile» and go to «Location».
  • Check the address and drag the pin on the map to your front door.
  • Save.

Google reviews changes before publishing them. It usually takes a few days.

If you have moved

Change the address on the same listing instead of creating a new one, so you keep your reviews and photos. Google may ask you to verify the business again at the new address.

If you have no premises

If you work at customers' homes and Google shows your house, hide the address and add the areas you serve instead. The address stays verified but does not appear on the map.

Common questions

Will I lose my reviews if I change the address?

No, if you change it on the same listing. You lose them if you delete the listing and create another.

Why won't Google accept the change?

Sometimes it asks for evidence: photos of the shopfront with your name, a bill, or verification again. Follow the steps it shows.
