LLP Partners come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Some of the most popular sorts of partners are as follows:

Q: Can a foreigner be designated LLP partner? If so, what are the additional requirements?

A foreign national can be appointed as a designated partner in an LLP in India. However, he will be needed to provide his passport in addition to the documentation required by Indian designated partners. If his passport is in a language other than English, he must get it apostilled and notarized before submitting it.

To be added to the list of designated partners of an LLP in India, the designated partner must fill DIR Forms 3 and 4 and submit them to the authorities.

An Overview on Adding a Designated Partner

In the case of a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), at least two partners must serve as designated partners. These partners must be assigned a Designated Partner Identification Number and have their names included in the LLP partner agreement. The designated partner can be replaced or withdrawn. When compared to other forms of business registrations, adding a designated partner to an LLP is simpler to implement and requires less compliances.
