Overview

Why a UK Limited or UK LLP?

The United Kingdom offers one of the fastest and simplest company formations worldwide. Registration via Companies House takes only 1–3 days, 100% foreign ownership is possible, and the UK Ltd enjoys a strong global reputation.

Strasia Group handles the entire incorporation of your UK Limited — from registration to registered address to bank account opening. All 100% remote.

Why a UK LLP?

A UK LLP (Limited Liability Partnership) is a limited liability partnership. It is tax-transparent: profits are attributed directly to the partners and are not taxed at the entity level. For non-UK residents, the LLP structure can enable an effective tax rate of 0%. Even a single individual can benefit from this structure (e.g., with a second company as a partner).
