Conversion of partnership into limited liability company(LLC).hotel a RotterdamThe conversion of a partnership into an LLC classified as apartnership for federal tax purposes does not terminate thepartnership. The conversion is not a sale, exchange, or liquidation ofany partnership interest, the partnership's tax year does not close,and the LLC can continue to use the partnership's taxpayeridentification number.

If a decrease in apartner's share of liabilities exceeds the partner's basis, he or shemust recognize gain on the excess. For more information, seeEffect of Partnership Liabilities under Basis ofPartner's Interest, later.

The same rules apply if an LLC classified as a partnership isconverted into a partnership.
