Top Questions about Missouri Partnerships

In Missouri, a partnership is a business arrangement where two or more individuals or entities come together to conduct a trade or business for profit.

Missouri recognizes three types of partnerships: general partnerships (GPs), limited partnerships (LPs), and limited liability partnerships (LLPs).

To form a partnership in Missouri, you must choose a business name, file a Partnership Registration Statement with the Secretary of State, and obtain any required permits or licenses.

Some advantages of forming a partnership in Missouri include shared decision-making, limited formalities, and the ability to pool resources and expertise.

In Missouri, partnerships are generally not subject to income tax at the entity level. Instead, partners report their share of the partnership's income or losses on their personal tax returns.
