Frequently Asked Questions
Who can form a Limited Partnership (LP) in Ontario or BC as a non-resident?
Non-residents of Canada, including foreign individuals, companies, and investors, can form an LP in either province. There are no residency requirements for limited partners, and often none for general partners with proper setup.
Do I need to be physically present in Canada to set up an LP?
No, the entire process can be handled remotely. You don’t need to visit Canada—we manage everything from name search to registration on your behalf.
What is the main difference between an Ontario LP and a BC LP for non-residents?
Both offer limited liability and tax-efficient flow-through structures, but Ontario is often chosen for its prestige and established use in international funds, while BC provides flexible options with strong investor protections and no partner residency restrictions.
Why do foreign investors and entrepreneurs choose a Canadian LP?
It’s ideal for global credibility, limited liability protection for passive investors, tax advantages (especially when not carrying on business in Canada), and easy access to North American markets without full Canadian residency.
How many partners are required to form an LP?
You need at least one general partner (who manages the LP and has unlimited liability) and one limited partner (with liability limited to their contribution). The same person or entity can sometimes fill both roles, but we recommend separation for liability protection.
What documents or information do I need to provide?
You’ll need basic details like the LP name, partner information (names and addresses), principal place of business address in the province, and a simple partnership agreement outline. We guide you and handle filing the required declaration.
Does the LP need a registered address in Ontario or BC?
Yes, both provinces require a principal place of business or registered office address in the province. We provide this service for non-residents to meet the requirement easily.
Is a general partner required to be a Canadian resident or entity?
In most cases, no strict residency is needed, but the general partner must comply with provincial rules (e.g., extra-provincial registration if foreign). We often use compliant structures to simplify this for non-residents.
What happens if the LP doesn't carry on business in Canada?
If the LP has no Canadian operations, non-resident partners typically face minimal or no Canadian tax filing obligations or income tax, as income flows through to partners based on their home jurisdiction rules.
Are there ongoing compliance requirements after formation?
Yes, LPs need periodic renewals (e.g., every 5 years in Ontario) and must keep partner records updated. We offer support to handle declarations, changes, or any filings so you stay compliant effortlessly.
Can I use the LP for international investments or holding assets?
Absolutely—many non-residents use Ontario or BC LPs for holding investments, real estate (with care on tax rules), venture capital, or cross-border activities, benefiting from Canada’s stable legal system and treaty advantages.
What if my situation involves carrying on business in Canada?
If the LP will have Canadian activities, additional tax and registration rules may apply (e.g., GST/HST or extra-provincial steps). We can advise based on your plans to ensure everything is set up correctly.
