What is an LLC, and what are the benefits of LLC Registration?
Befiler October 18, 2022
A Limited Liability Company or an LLC is a famous business structure in the USA that protects business owners from personal liability for business debts and claims. LLC is a hybrid structure with a corporation, sole proprietorship, and partnership characteristics.
LLC is not considered separate from its members for tax purposes. It is also a pass-through entity, like a sole proprietorship and partnership. This means that LLC business profits or losses are passed through to its members, who report the profit or loss on their tax returns according to their share.
LLCs are highly advantageous. They provide the same liability protection as corporations without requiring record keeping compliance, board meeting requirements, and other paperwork. LLC seems very popular, especially when a startup chooses a legal business structure.
