Marshall Islands LP
A partnership is registered pursuant to the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) Revised Partnership Act through the filing of a Certificate of Partnership Existence with the Registrar of Corporations. The Certificate may be very general in nature, but must include the name of the partnership, the contact information of the Registered Agent, and a statement that the partnership will file a Certificate of Dissolution following the dissolution of the partnership. Similar to a general partnership, the LP allows for flexible allocation of profits and losses and other distributions.
