Starting a business doesn’t need to be a solo affair. Set your partnership up for success.
It’s important you don’t pay more taxes and business costs than you have to. As a partnership, your business will be equally divided between all business partners who will share the businesses income and losses. Like sole traders, partnerships are clean and simple to set up, however you must be aware of the liabilities.
Each partner will need their own Tax File Number (TFN) and Australian Business Number (ABN). Partnerships can be formed with a verbal agreement or a written agreement, however it is advisable to get a written agreement in instances of disputes and legal issues.
Partners are liable for the businesses debts and liabilities, and are also legally responsible for the actions and debts of the other partners. A partnership does not pay tax on its income, however it is spread equally across all partners from which tax will be paid on their share of the business. Under a partnership, you’ll need to submit a tax return both for your business, and an individual return as a partner of the business. This allows you to separate your business expenses and deductions. Some deductions are not available to the partnership, but may be claimed by the partners.
