Advantage of Limited Liability Company

Limited liability:

As the name implies, members’ liabilities for the debts and obligations of the LLC are limited to their own investment. This is one of the key advantages of a limited liability company. In other words, if your company gets sued, your personal assets, like bank accounts and real estate, are protected. At most, you can only lose the money you put into the business and nothing else.
Keep in mind that this protection is not all-encompassing. Members can still be held liable for criminal behaviour or if they neglect to follow certain rules about business management. Consult with a lawyer to make sure you are not violating these rules and exposing yourself to personal liability.

No Income tax:

Enjoy the freedom whatever you earn as personal income, there is no income tax on individual, Yes UAE has launched Corporate Tax on business and VAT on all services and goods.

Limitless ownership:

Some legal structures limit the number of people allowed to file as owners. With an LLC, there is no limit to the number of owners. An LLC can have one member or hundreds of members.

Allocation flexibility:

In an LLC, the amount of money that owners invest in the business doesn’t need to equal their percentage of ownership. When an LLC is formed, members create an operating agreement. in which different percentages of company profits and losses can be assigned to owners regardless of the amounts of their initial investments. So you can make a deal with an investor to have them finance half of your business without necessarily owning have of your business.
