An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is a nine-digit number issued by the IRS to identify a business entity for federal tax purposes — similar in concept to a Social Security Number, but for a business rather than an individual.
An EIN is commonly required or requested when opening a U.S. business bank account. However, having an EIN does not guarantee that a bank or financial institution will approve an account. Each institution sets its own eligibility, identity-verification, and compliance requirements.
IRS EIN application procedures can differ for applicants who do not have an SSN or ITIN. Sangemeel.LLC assists international LLC owners with preparing and submitting the appropriate EIN application to the IRS.
An EIN identifies a business; an ITIN identifies an individual. They are issued for different purposes and are not interchangeable. See the full LLC vs EIN vs ITIN comparison for details.
