Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a relatively new business entity introduced in India through the LLP Act, 2008. LLPs are most popular amongst small businesses. With the recent relaxation of FDI rules relating to LLP, the interest to register an LLP amongst NRIs and Foreign Nationals has also increased. This article provides details and descriptions of the documents required for LLP registration.
The following documents are mandatorily required for Indian Nationals incorporating an LLP:
PAN Card: PAN Card copy of the proposed Partners of the LLP will be required for the LLP registration process. The Department of Income Tax in India issues the PAN or Permanent Account Number, a unique identification number.
Address Proof: In addition to the PAN Card copy, the proposed Partner must also submit an address proof and residential proof. The address proof submitted must have the name of the Partner as mentioned in the PAN Card and the most current address. The document must also not be older than two months. The following documents are acceptable address proof for Indian Nationals.
The following documents are mandatory for Foreign Nationals registering an LLP:
Passport: In the case of Foreign Nationals, a Passport is mandatory to submit proof of identity. The Passport must also be Notarized or Apostilled in the country it was issued. If the document is in a foreign language, then translate with an official translator to English and notarized or apostilled. Further, suppose the Passport does not contain the holder's date of birth. In that case, an additional document indicating the date of delivery of the Partner must be provided, duly certified or attested or notarized or apostilled.
Address Proof: In addition to the Notarized or Apostilled Passport copy, the foreign national must submit an address proof which is also notarized or apostilled. The address proof submitted must have the name of the Partner as mentioned in the Passport and the most current address of the Partner. Further, the document must not be older than one year for foreign nationals. The following documents are acceptable address proof for Foreign Nationals.

The following documents are acceptable residential proof:
