Obtain an EIN
An Employer Identification Number (“EIN”), also known as a Federal Tax Identification Number, is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the IRS to businesses and entities operating in the United States. Think of it as your business's social security number—it identifies your company for tax, banking, and legal purposes.

Your EIN is necessary to file your federal taxes, including income tax and payroll tax.
