The source text is an alphabetical list with no more context. I believe it may be from Colombia, as a similar file mentioned the DIAN, but I'm not sure. I don't like to ask about abbreviations here, but if I consult the client, they may take months to respond, so I'm posting it here because someone might just happen to know what they stand for here.

legal entity / natural person

Or of course legal person, if you like. In other words, I think they probably stand for persona jurídica and persona natural. They use these expressions in Colombia:

Not certain, but since these all seem to be agents or representatives, I think it could well be distinguishing between those acting for legal entities and those acting for individuals.
Note from asker:
Great! Thanks for the explanation, which seems sound. I might just leave the abbreviations as they are, as LP/NP would be equally obscure.
