If you want a US business identity, you need this number
An EIN is your company's federal tax ID — a nine-digit number the IRS issues to identify your business. Almost every serious step beyond forming the entity depends on it.
Open a US business bank account
No US bank or fintech will open a true business account without an EIN. It's the first thing Mercury, Wise, Chase and every reviewer ask for — alongside your formation docs.
New account · verification
Get approved on Stripe & PayPal
Payment processors verify your business against IRS records. The EIN on your CP-575 is what clears their review and keeps payouts flowing.
Hiring employees
Required to run US payroll and report wages to the IRS.
Filing federal taxes
Your entity's identifier on every return and 1099.
Selling on marketplaces
Amazon, Shopify Payments and wholesale vendors all ask for it.
Every entity type qualifies
Single-member LLC, multi-member LLC, C-corp or sole proprietorship — formed in any state, owned from anywhere in the world. We handle the filing details for each.

How we get an EIN with no Social Security number
Non-residents can't use the IRS online form — but there's a correct, fully legitimate path most founders never find. Here's exactly how we do it for you.
- Part IDay 101
We become your designee
You sign a simple third-party authorization. From that moment the IRS treats us as the contact for your application — so no US phone number, address or SSN is ever needed from you.
- Part IIDays 1–202
Responsible party, done right
For foreign applicants, line 7b is where DIY filings fail. We enter 'Foreign' correctly and answer the responsible-party questions the way the IRS requires — the single most common rejection, avoided.
- Part IIIDays 2–503
Filed by fax, not blocked online
The IRS online tool rejects anyone without an SSN. We use the dedicated international fax channel built for foreign applicants, the only reliable route to an EIN without a US tax ID.
- Part IVWeeks 1–404
We track it to issuance
International cases sit in a manual queue. We follow up with the IRS so your application keeps moving — then deliver your EIN and CP-575 the moment it's assigned.
