Q.
Where can I find my startup's EIN?
A.
Your startup’s employer identification number (EIN) is often required when doing things like filing taxes, opening bank accounts, applying for loans, hiring employees, and more. If you don’t have an EIN yet, you can apply for an EIN online through the IRS. If you’ve already received an EIN, you can find it on the confirmation letter you received from the IRS, either online or by mail. Other places to look for your EIN include previous tax returns, official IRS notices, business licenses, payroll paperwork, and bank statements. If you still can’t find your EIN you can contact the IRS for support.
