Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) Registration

What is Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)

Limited Liability Partnerships are usually abbreviated as LLPs. The business structure is popular when a ‘professional partnership’ wants the benefit of protected liability. This is especially suitable for accountants, architects, consultants, surveyors, and other disciplines of competence where a partnership is favored over a limited company. LLPs may be correct when the partners are members of an institute or when individual incomes are clearly defined rather than just aggregated into one pot and paid as surpluses. Within an LLP, members’ earnings are normally considered personal income.
