Our limited liability partnership formation package, at a cost of £74.99 +VAT, is ideal for any type of profession that would normally operate as a traditional partnership, but whose members require limited liability.

As soon as Companies House approves your new LLP registration, we will send your Certificate of Incorporation, LLP documents, and a draft LLP Agreement to your email address.

If you require a formal LLP Agreement, simply email your completed draft to 1st Formations and we will prepare and deliver two printed copies of the document by 1st class post.

If you were to buy the items included in this package individually, it would cost a total of £138.99. Therefore, at a package price of £74.99, you will enjoy a saving of £64.00 +VAT.

Please note:

  1. A formal LLP Agreement is not a legal requirement; however, it is essential if the LLP members want to contribute capital and/or share business profits in any way other than equally.
  2. Company documents are delivered free of charge within the UK. For overseas deliveries, Royal Mail postage rates + 15% will be charged.
  3. The business bank account referral offers are only available to companies with UK resident directors and shareholders. Companies with overseas directors and shareholders are not eligible for this offer. We have partnered with WorldFirst to provide a business banking referral for non-UK residents. You will get the option to add a WorldFirst bank account during the order process. Account openings are subject to approval.

Frequently asked questions

What is a limited liability partnership?

A limited liability partnership offers its members the security of limited financial liability with the more flexible internal structure offered by a traditional partnership.

Why should I choose to form an LLP?

A limited liability partnership is commonly used by industry professionals who normally work in partnerships, such as solicitors, architects and accountants, but who wish to protect their personal finances by way of limited liability.

Do I need to have a Partnership Agreement?

It is not a legal requirement to produce a Partnership Agreement, though it is recommended. This can help to prevent any disputes over partners' rights.

How many partners should an LLP have?

A limited liability partnership must have at least 2 members (partners) to be registered with Companies House. There is no upper limit to the number of partners an LLP can have.

What is the confirmation statement?

The confirmation statement is a document that must be filed annually, providing Companies House with up-to-date information about your company. This package includes the preparation and filing of your first confirmation statement.

« Within half an hour of registering online with 1st Formations, I submitted information to register an LLP. A little over 4 hours later, I received confirmation of Incorporation of my new Partnership. Very efficient and straightforward. Highly recommended. »
