LLP Creation Checklist: Legal Requirements
Setting-Up LLP: You have to register with Companies House, the method is similar to registering a company. LLP subscribers may be residents outside the UK. A LLP must exist for business purposes: it is a for-profit legal form. Membership: the only members are the partners. Partners must be individuals or corporate bodies. The minimum number of partners are TWO. New partners are normally admitted by the existing partners. Partners can be of any nationality. The business is controlled by the designated members. A LLP can hold property. A LLP can borrow money in its own name. An LLP will be required to appoint at least 2 designated members. LLPs that do not carry on business as a trade or profession such as an investment company will be subject to corporation tax. The LLP is required to have a registered office in the UK.
UK LLP FORMATION SERVICE. FORMING AN LLP IN THE UNITED KINGDOM. DEFINITION OF LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIP & LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIP BENEFITS. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN LLC AND AN LLP?
Online LLP Formation & Registration LLP Limited Liability Partnership in England: welcome to online Limited Liability Partnership - UK LLP formation agent. Whether you are suited to being your own boss and can start up on minimal resources are questions that can only be fully answered once you take the plunge.
But the below sections will give you the best possible idea as to what's involved in going it alone, where you can find help and how others have fared when starting up a business. We recommend reviewing this site in its entirety, so that you are knowledgeable of the UK jurisdiction and the powers granted to British LLPs. We will guide you through the process of registering your limited liability partnership and establishing your registered identity.
What does LLP stand for? What is the difference between an LLC and LLP? The LLP must have at least two members in the partnership, which can be resident anywhere in the world. The members can be natural persons or corporate bodies. A Limited Liability Partnership or LLP is a relatively new creation that operates much like a limited partnership, but allows the members of the LLP to take an active role in the business of the partnership, without exposing them to personal liability for others' acts except to the extent of their investment in the LLP. All profits in a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) are split between the members. The tax liability falls on the individual members, not the LLP itself. Most members are likely to be self-employed, so all income should be declared via self-assessment. If an LLP member is another business, they will be liable to pay corporation tax on any income they receive from the LLP. As with other company structures, if the LLP is expecting to generate income of £61,000 or more (from 1/4/2006; previously it was £60,000), they should register for VAT. If they have employees, the LLP should set up a PAYE system to collect income tax and National Insurance contributions.
Suggested Reading
A limited liability partnership is a legal entity and a body corporate. That means it has a legal personality separate from that of its members. Like a limited company, a limited liability partnership can do all the things an individual or company can do. It can make contracts, sue or be sued, hold property or become insolvent.
By and large, partnership law does not apply to a limited liability partnership, but the arrangements between the partners may closely follow a traditional partnership agreement. A limited liability partnership is not the same as a limited partnership, regulated by the Limited Partnerships Act 1907.
The profits of the business of a limited liability partnership are taxed as if the business were carried on by partners in partnership, rather than by a body corporate. This ensures that the commercial choice between using a limited liability partnership or a partnership is a tax neutral one. There are fair and foreseeable provisions to restrict set off losses elsewhere against partnership profits of a partner and other anti-avoidance measures.
Capital Gains Tax: The members of a limited liability partnership are charged to Capital Gains Tax in largely the same way as traditional partners in a partnership. Neither the commencement of the limited liability partnership, nor any change of partner is treated as an event-giving rise to a charge to Capital Gains Tax.
Inheritance Tax: The Inheritance Tax Act 1984 has been amended to provide that the partners and partnership assets of a limited liability partnership are treated in largely the same way as those of a traditional partnership.

All England and Scotland registered partnerships are legally required to have a registered office address. It is the address of a LLP to which Companies House letters and reminders will be sent. The registered office address can be anywhere in England and Wales (or Scotland if your LLP is registered there). The registered office address must always be an effective address for delivering documents to the LLP, and to avoid delays it is important that all correspondence sent to this address is dealt with promptly.
Our registered office address will be recorded at Companies House and all official mail will be forwarded to your designated address. If you want to be a Scottish registered LLP and governed by Scottish law then you will need a registered address in Scotland. We can provide you with a prestigious address in Edinburgh or Glasgow. For LLPs owned by overseas residents it is a legal requirement to have a local registered address where official government mail can send.
Please note that this address SHOULD NOT be used for any trading purposes or general correspondence, or for any form of advertising. The address is only to be used to comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 1985 in relation to official mail and documents.
Please note registered office address is not to be used for general correspondence; our trade mail service is available for this purpose. The registered office address will also be used by the UK tax authorities, and other government departments, to contact the LLP. In the event the LLP is involved in any legal action official papers will often be served at the registered office address.
The LLP stationery, including the letterhead, should contain the LLP's official name, as registered with Companies House; the LLP's registered office address; the registration number or license number; the VAT registration number (if any); and the place of registration, i.e. England & Wales or Scotland.
