Why is LP suitable for non-resident partners?
A Limited Partnership is a partnership form of business where:
- Company does not pay tax in the UK, if the activity is carried out outside of it;
- Profit is distributed among participants (partners) depending on their shares;
- Each partner pays taxes in his country of residence, not in the UK;
- LP is recognized as a legitimate international structure, which does not have offshore status.
For businesses with international clients, LP is a tool for transparent tax optimization and legal distribution of income.
Who can be a partner in an LP?
| Partner type | The status of | Duties |
|---|---|---|
| General Partners | An individual or a legal entity | Manages LP, bears responsibility |
| Limited Partners | An individual or a legal entity | Contributes capital, receives a share of the profits |
