Note to the Legal Form  

A Limited Liability Partnership is defined in the Company Law as a company incorporated with not less than two, and no more than fifty partners, each responsible only for the liabilities of the company to the extent of their share participation in the capital of the company. Shares must not be issued in the form of negotiable shares or papers. The legal concepts adopted by the Company Law refer to the members of this type of company as “partners” and not as “shareholders”. This type of company is quite similar to a private company limited by shares that exists in English Law.
