Government is to ensure that UK LLPs are covered by the foreign hybrid laws...
The Minister for Revenue and Assistant Treasurer, Peter Dutton, today announced that the government will use its regulation making power to ensure that UK limited liability partnerships are covered by the foreign hybrid laws.
The foreign hybrid laws were enacted in 2004 to address adverse taxation implications that can result from Australia treating a foreign hybrid entity as a company for tax purposes, while the foreign jurisdiction treats it as a ‘look-through' entity such as a partnership.
Dutton said, “I have been advised that UK limited liability partnerships do
not currently fall within the foreign hybrid rules. The Government does not consider this is an appropriate outcome.”
The Government will use its regulation making power to ensure that UK limited liability partnerships can also be treated as a partnership under the foreign hybrid laws. The design of the regulation will be the subject of targeted consultations.
