Eligibility

All U.S. and foreign owners of business entities are eligible to apply. Non-U.S. residents without a Social Security Number can still obtain an EIN by filing via fax or mail using Form SS-4 with “Foreign” indicated on line 7b. No visa or residency requirements apply.

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) — also known as a Federal Tax ID Number — is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). It identifies your business for federal tax purposes, banking, hiring employees, and legal compliance. Every business entity, including LLCs, corporations, nonprofits, and foreign entities, must have an EIN to open a business bank account, file taxes, or apply for certain licenses. Our service ensures your EIN is correctly filed and issued without errors or delays.
