A sole trader structure is the simplest and most common form of business entity in New Zealand. It offers complete control over decision-making and operations, making it an ideal choice for solo entrepreneurs. As a sole trader, you have the freedom to make decisions quickly and adapt to market changes effectively. Moreover, establishing yourself as a sole trader is relatively straightforward, requiring minimal legal formalities and lower compliance costs.

Forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC) for your small business in New Zealand brings several advantages. Firstly, an LLC provides personal asset protection by separating your personal finances from your business liabilities. This means that in the event of business-related debts or legal issues, your personal assets are shielded from potential risks. Additionally, an LLC structure enhances your credibility among customers, suppliers, and investors, as it reflects a level of professionalism and commitment to long-term success.

If you decide to embark on a business venture with one or more partners, establishing a partnership structure is worth considering. A partnership allows for shared responsibilities, expertise, and resources among partners. It allows you to combine complementary skills, experiences, and networks to drive business growth. Moreover, partnerships provide a flexible framework for businesses that thrive on collaboration and collective decision-making. Similar to sole traders, partnerships offer simplicity in terms of formation and management, with lower compliance costs compared to companies.  Partnerships in NZ are required to pay tax on profits, GST depending on annual earnings, and Income Tax.
