BUMP: Any feedback regarding UK LLP and non-resident partners, will Stripe approve that application or will they ask for partners to show some UK proof of address or UK residency proof? Any feedback would be appreciated.
I checked Stripe and they did not mention that LLP partners have to be UK residents, but some people on here claimed Stripe asked UK address proof for Partners.
I am hesitant to proceed with UK LLP formation if Stripe is gonna reject me because partners have no connection to the UK.
Well, it is cheap, but if you want full service, mail forwarding, local phone number, certification of documents, obtaining UTR numbers ... it can go up-to 500-600 pounds.
Register a LTD not a LLP as purely a payment gateway to "access" the UK market.
You can use a virtual address that will give you tenancy agreement and bills,
On the back of that you can also register a TW, Tide, Monese, Revolut or Monzo account using that bill. As an EU citizen you will can also open normal bank account in the UK if you can get here before Brexit.
There is a link to a group I was introduced to, the guys below are very expensive but there are other providers.
No it works as a marketing office, so the product is still dealt with via head office but the UK entity takes the payment.
By virtue of the company being run from︀ another country the effective place of management is where the tax will be due.
Use the CFC rules against them.
I you have residency in a 0% tax country with a UK Ltd., i assume you could just pay out 100% of the monthly earnings as salary to avoid paying any corporate tax at the end of the year.
BTW, LLP should work fine. Just write a UK︀ adress and send a UK utility bill if they ask.
If you pay out any money from any type of entity as salary you have to pay personal income tax from that amount. It does not really make any sense unless you pay a very low tax rate in your country or can avoid it totally.
Back to the UK LLP - I don't understand why not open a LTD on darks... it is like a company on steroids... look it up in mentor gold if you need help to get the thing done.
