New York is where partners come together: for Manhattan real estate, for investments, for projects with international reach. Your New York Limited Partnership gives your collaboration a structure every business partner recognizes. One partner leads, the others invest, and it is all settled from day one.
We take care of formation and ongoing support, in English. You get on with your next big project.

The package
In the first year you get every service in the annual package. From the second year on, everything continues with the annual package. Your Limited Partnership is in good order from day one, and it stays that way.
We file the formation with the New York Department of State and prepare the document set for your path. We pass on the state fees for the Limited Partnership and the general partner LLC with no markup.
We submit your Mercury application with you as soon as your documents and EIN are in. You also get euro account details with your own IBAN through Wise and, if you come to Austin, a personal introduction at a traditional US bank.
We apply for your Employer Identification Number (EIN) with the IRS. And we file the mandatory BE-13 report with the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the filing many founders have never heard of.
New York doesn't require a Registered Agent: the Secretary of State accepts service of process and forwards it to the address your company provides. We list our Austin address there. Your mail reaches you by email, and if a letter comes with a deadline, we tell you what to do.
Our Austin address goes on your letterhead and invoices, plus a US phone number with call answering.
Partners' meeting, resolutions and minutes, partner register, New York filings for the LP and the general partner LLC, and a calendar with every deadline. You sign, we do the rest.
The six points in detailContract templates under US law for the everyday business of your Limited Partnership. From your first customer contract to your first investor.
You ask, we answer, as often as you like. The only exceptions are custom documents drafted by the attorneys on the firm's team, and bookkeeping.
Included every year
With free consultations.
Two paths, clear prices
A Limited Partnership always has at least two partners: a general partner who manages the business, and at least one limited partner who invests. With us, the general partner is the general partner LLC we form alongside it. The question is who becomes the limited partner.
The parent company invests as the limited partner. The general partner is the general partner LLC we form alongside it. Your parent company's documents are added.
plus $9 every two years for the general partner LLC's Biennial Statement
Choose this pathYou and your partners invest as limited partners. The general partner is the general partner LLC we form alongside it, and you own it.
plus $9 every two years for the general partner LLC's Biennial Statement
Choose this pathAfter formation, New York requires the LP and the general partner LLC to be published in two newspapers. The Certificates of Publication are included in the state fees, and we pass on the newspaper costs at cost. Every two years the general partner LLC files its Biennial Statement, first in the month of formation two years after formation, for $9. Bookkeeping is only added if you book it: from $250 a month, starting when you begin trading.

How it works
Everything runs remotely. The timings below reflect our experience, not guarantees.
Pick your path and extras on the order card. You see the total right away.
We file with the Department of State and prepare your document set. We form the general partner LLC first, then the Limited Partnership.
New York requires the formation of the Limited Partnership and the general partner LLC to be published for six weeks in two newspapers chosen by the county. We engage the newspapers and then file the Certificate of Publication; we pass on the newspaper costs at cost.
Without a US Social Security number, we apply for the EIN by fax. The IRS quotes about four business days.
We file the mandatory report with the Bureau of Economic Analysis on time.
With your formation documents and IRS letter (CP575 or 147C), we submit the application together with you. Mercury decides after its own review.
According to Mercury, no visit to the US is required. You only travel to Austin if you want an introduction to a traditional US bank. That is optional.
Accounts and credit history
Credit for your company and for you. The strongest business cards also check your personal credit history, so we build both.
Annual compliance
A New York Limited Partnership comes with obligations, year after year. We handle these six: in the formation package from day one, and afterwards with the annual package.
We set the date and prepare the agenda and resolutions: acknowledging the annual financial statements and ratifying the business the general partner has conducted. In writing or by video, we write the minutes and collect the signatures electronically.
We keep the resolutions and minutes of your Limited Partnership and its general partner LLC, and the partner register with general partner and limited partners. Digital and always up to date.
The Limited Partnership files no periodic report in New York. The general partner LLC files its Biennial Statement every two years, in the month of formation, for a fee of $9. A fee with the New York State tax department only applies to the LP once it had at least one million US dollars of New York source income in the prior year.
The address for service through the Secretary of State remains our Austin address. Your mail reaches you by email, and we flag the deadlines.
Every deadline with New York, the IRS and the Bureau of Economic Analysis is in your calendar, and we remind you in good time. Since March 2025, companies formed in the US no longer report to FinCEN, confirmed by a final rule dated August 11, 2026. If the requirement returns, we handle it at no extra charge.
Unlimited support in English. Need a resolution for a new account, a contract or a loan? We prepare it, within the usual scope and at no extra charge. Custom documents drafted by the attorneys on the firm's team: $450 per matter.
Resolutions and minutes
When you want to work with a regulated supplier, take out a loan or sell your company, the first thing the other side asks for is your company's resolutions and minutes (the minute book). They show who owns the company, who runs it, who can sign and what was decided when.
If they are missing, they cannot be cleanly recreated after the fact. That is why we keep them from day one. When the moment comes, you just send a link.
BE-13
If a foreign person directly or indirectly holds at least ten percent of the voting rights, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis requires the BE-13 filing (15 CFR 801.7), even if it never contacts you. The deadline: 45 calendar days from formation.
We file it with every formation, as a short Claim for Exemption where total costs are up to $40 million. Above that, the full form applies, quoted individually.
Template library
Templates for everything from your first customer contract to your first investor. The Partnership Agreement, resolutions and minutes of your Limited Partnership are already part of the package.
Once you've paid, log in at mtbonnell.com/vorlagen with the email address you used for your order. No password needed: we send you a code by email. The templates are tailored to your limited partnership, so the contracting party is a limited partnership with a General Partner and Limited Partners. They don't replace advice on your specific situation: where it really matters, the attorneys on the firm's team draft the document.
Why New York
New York is the third-largest state economy, after California and Texas. Form a Limited Partnership there and you take on a few quirks: no Registered Agent requirement, no periodic report for the LP, and publication in the newspaper.
The general partner LLC files its Biennial Statement every two years. The Limited Partnership itself files no periodic report in New York.
Within 120 days of formation, the company is published for six weeks in two newspapers. Then comes the Certificate of Publication for $50. We handle it.
The Department of State fees: Limited Partnership $200, general partner LLC $200, Certificate of Publication for the LP $50, Certificate of Publication for the general partner LLC $50. Newspaper costs are added at cost. We pass them on with no markup and list them separately.
