In the UK, taxes associated with a partnership structure are referred to as partnership taxes. In a partnership, two or more people work together to run a business with the goal of turning a profit. Partners are personally responsible for the debts and obligations of the partnership because partnerships are not distinct legal entities.
The Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005, which lays out the procedures for calculating a partnership’s profits and losses for tax purposes, governs partnership taxation in the UK. Although partnerships are exempt from corporate taxes, each partner is still liable for paying taxes on their portion of the partnership’s gains or losses.
