A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a business structure used by professionals with a profit motive. As opposed to a limited company, which can be formed by a single person. An LLP requires at least two partners for formation. The LLP structure provides personal liability protection from creditors. For overseas partners there can also be significant tax benefits.
Regardless of the total number of individuals planning to be partners, an LLP formation requires two designated partners. When completing your online application for LLP formation, you’ll need to specify which two partners will assume the role of a designated partner. If you don’t specify the names of the partners and their designations, Companies House will assume that all partners are designated. Their position resembles that of a company secretary and they have the following responsibilities:
It’s important to note here that LLP formation doesn’t have Articles of Association, which is part of limited company formation. The constitution of the partnership is represented by the partnership agreement. While a partnership agreement is formulated the majority of times, it isn’t a legal requirement for LLP formation.
If you recall what LLP means, it refers to two or more individuals partnering to conduct business with an intention to generate profit. Based on this definition, a partnership can never be a non-for-profit organisation.
