Add a Designated Partner

In the case of a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), at least two individuals who are partners shall act as designated partners. These partners must have a Designated Partner Identification Number and their names must feature in the LLP partner agreement. The appointed partner can be changed or removed. These are easy to apply and the compliances are lesser when compared to other types of company registrations.

There is no maximum limit on a number of partners. There is also no restriction on joining and leaving an LLP. One can easily join or leave it. The ownership can also be transferred from one person to another without much difficulty.

Checklist for Eligibility of a Designated Partner

A person has to fulfill the specific requirements in case he wants to enroll himself as a designated partner with an LLP. Let us have a look at some of the primary requirements to be eligible to become a designated partner in an LLP:

  • The individual must be at least 18 years old.
  • Any individual or body corporate can be eligible to be a partner in an LLP.
  • The individual who wishes to become a partner must have a unique identification number (For instance, Aadhaar Card)
  • Every LLP must have a minimum of two designated partners.
  • The person should be in a sound mind.
  • The person shouldn’t be involved in fraudulence.
  • There is no maximum limit for the number of partners in a limited liability partnership.
  • At least one designated partner must be an Indian national who resides in India.
  • The other Designated Partners must also provide a consent letter stating their proof and other documents.
  • The individual should not have adjudged bankruptcy in the last 5 years.

It’s the LLP firm’s responsibility to file such details with the Registrar within 30 days of such a change in the Form 4.
