Business Setup for a Limited Liability Partnership

An LLP is a separate legal entity with at least two partners. Partners may be eligible individuals or entities, and the LLP continues despite changes in partners. A partner remains responsible for their own wrongful acts; limited liability does not remove every possible obligation.

Income is allocated to partners and taxed at the applicable personal or corporate rate, depending on the partner. Keep accounting records and meet ACRA annual-declaration requirements.
