Taxes

Legal entity

In the realm of finance, we often encounter terms such as corporations, joint-stock companies, and limited liability companies. It is important to note that for tax purposes, these entities are considered separate from their shareholders. On the other hand, partnerships are typically not recognized as separate legal entities and their profits are taxed at the individual partner level. It's worth noting that the definition of a legal entity for tax purposes may differ from that of general law.
