What is an EIN?
An Employer Identification Number (EIN), also known as a Federal Tax Identification Number, is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to business entities. Think of it as a Social Security Number for your business—it's used to identify your business entity for tax purposes and is required for most business operations.
Why Your Business Needs an EIN
An EIN is essential for various business activities, including:
- Filing business tax returns
- Opening business bank accounts
- Applying for business licenses
- Hiring employees and processing payroll
- Establishing business credit
- Applying for business loans
- Working with vendors and contractors
Even if you're a sole proprietor without employees, having an EIN can help separate your personal and business finances and protect your Social Security Number from unnecessary exposure.
