Employer Identification Number (EIN)

Step 1: Determine Your Eligibility

• You may apply for an EIN online if your principal business is located in the United States or U.S. Territories.
• The person applying online must have a valid Taxpayer Identification Number (SSN, ITIN, EIN).
• You are limited to one EIN per responsible party per day.
  • The “responsible party” is the person who ultimately owns or controls the entity or who exercises ultimate effective control over the entity. Unless the applicant is a government entity, the responsible party must be an individual (i.e., a natural person), not an entity.

Step 2: Understand the Online Application

• You must complete this application in one session, as you will not be able to save and return at a later time. 
• Your session will expire after 15 minutes of inactivity, and you will need to start over.

Step 3: Submit Your Application

• After all validations are done you will get your EIN immediately upon completion. You can then download, save, and print your EIN confirmation notice.

 

You will be transferred to the Internal Revenue Service. You should not have to pay for your EIN number, nor do you need an attorney. The IRS website is secured government website.
