Why you need an EIN

Your EIN is your business's federal tax ID. You need it for almost everything.

Open a business bank account

Banks require an EIN before they will open a business account. No EIN, no account.

Hire employees

The IRS requires an EIN before you can put anyone on payroll.

File business taxes

Your EIN is how the IRS identifies your business on every return.

Apply for licenses and permits

Most state and local licenses ask for your federal tax ID before they approve.

Establish business credit

Vendors and lenders use your EIN to build your business credit profile.

Protect your personal identity

Using your EIN instead of your Social Security Number keeps your personal identity out of business transactions.

EIN / Tax ID Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to get an EIN?

Most EINs are issued in 1 to 2 business days after we file your application.

Do I need an EIN if I have no employees?

Yes. Most banks, payment processors, and licenses require an EIN even if you never hire anyone.

Can I get an EIN before my LLC is approved?

We recommend filing for your EIN after your LLC is approved. The IRS issues EINs to legal entities, so your LLC needs to exist first.

Is my EIN stored securely?

Yes. Your EIN confirmation is stored in your BizUp dashboard with the rest of your business documents.

What if I already have an EIN?

If you already have one, you do not need to apply again. Add your existing EIN to your BizUp profile in your dashboard.

What is the difference between an EIN and a state tax ID?

An EIN is a federal identifier issued by the IRS. Some states also require a separate state tax ID for payroll or sales tax. We can help you identify what your state requires.
