A partnership is a type of business entity in which partners (owners) share with each other the profits or losses of the business. Partnerships are often favored over corporations for taxation purposes, as the partnership structure does not generally incur a tax on profits before they are distributed to the partners (i.e. there is no dividend tax levied). However, depending on the partnership structure and the jurisdiction in which it operates, owners of a partnership may be exposed to greater personal liability than they would as shareholders of a corporation.

Definition in civil law

For a country-by-country listing of types of partnerships, companies, etc., see Types of business entity.

In civil law systems, a partnership is a nominate contract between individuals who, in a spirit of cooperation, agree to carry on an enterprise; contribute to it by combining property, knowledge or activities; and share its profit. Partners may have a partnership agreement, or declaration of partnership and in some jurisdictions such agreements may be registered and available for public inspection. In many countries, a partnership is also considered to be a legal entity, although different legal systems reach different conclusions on this point.

How do I switch from a partnership to a sole proprietorship?
Q. I have a partnership dissolution agreement already completed, how do I file this? Thanks,

A. File with your state corporation commission. Then, you'll need to apply for the sole proprietorship. Make sure that you've got agreements from any partners that you've satisfied them and that they fully relinquish any ownership.

How to I start a real estate partnership?
Q. I am planning to start a real estate investment partnership with friends, just wondering, when applying for loans on properties how would we go about providing income information?
Asked by Mic B - Wed May 2 17:20:42 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I don't recommend partnerships at all. Partnerships often times lead to broken friendships and a lot of heart ache cuz eventually someone will feel like one of the "partners" isn't carrying his weight. I know that isn't what you're looking for or asking, but I am seriously asking you to reconsider that. I personally would not do it.
