The Basics
What Is an EIN Number?
An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is a 9-digit tax ID issued by the IRS. Think of it as a Social Security Number for your business. Every LLC, corporation, and nonprofit in the United States needs one.
If you want to open a US bank account, sell on Amazon, hire employees, or file taxes - you need an EIN. It's the single most important number for your US business.
The problem: Non-US residents cannot apply for an EIN online. The IRS requires an SSN or ITIN for online applications. Your only option? File Form SS-4 by fax. That's exactly what we do - for $49.
