Confused about a Limited Partnership (LP) vs a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) in Canada? This video breaks down the real differences — liability, who can register, taxes, and which structure fits your business — so you can choose the right partnership with confidence before you register.

A Limited Partnership (LP) has at least one general partner who runs the business and carries unlimited liability, plus one or more limited partners whose risk is capped at what they invest. LPs are popular for investment funds, real estate, film, and family/holding structures — and in Canada there's no residency requirement, so non-resident partners can register too.

A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is built mainly for licensed professionals such as lawyers and accountants, where each partner is shielded from the negligence of the other partners. Eligibility is set province by province, so always check with your regulator before filing.

Not sure which one you need? Here's the short version: choose an LP when you want passive investors with limited exposure and one managing partner; choose an LLP when you're a group of licensed professionals who want personal protection from each other's mistakes.

🤝 Limited Partnership or Limited Liability Partnership? Choose the Right Structure for Your Business

Starting a business with partners? The partnership structure you choose can affect how your business is managed, how responsibilities are shared, and how liability is handled.

In Canada, two common partnership structures are Limited Partnership (LP) and Limited Liability Partnership (LLP).

🔹 Limited Partnership (LP)
An LP generally includes at least one general partner who manages the business and one or more limited partners who contribute capital. Limited partners generally have limited liability, subject to applicable laws and their role in the partnership.

🔹 Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)
An LLP allows partners to participate in managing the business while providing certain liability protections, depending on the applicable provincial or territorial legislation. LLPs are commonly used by certain professional practices, including law and accounting firms.

📋 Partnership Registration May Include:
✔ Business name search or approval
✔ Partner information
✔ Office address
✔ Required registration documents
✔ Partnership agreement

Depending on your business activities, you may also need a Business Number, GST/HST, payroll, or other CRA accounts after registration.

At Incorporation Registry, we make the registration process simple and streamlined, from name approval and document preparation to government filing.
