EIN

Services

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is one of the most important requirements when setting up and operating a U.S. business. Whether you are an international entrepreneur or a U.S. resident, an EIN is the unique tax ID that allows your company to be recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). At iFiler, we make the EIN application process smooth, reliable, and hassle-free—so you can focus on growing your business.

Employer Identification Number (EIN)

What is an EIN?

An Employer Identification Number (EIN), also known as a Federal Tax ID, is a nine-digit number issued by the IRS to identify your business for tax and compliance purposes. It functions much like a Social Security Number does for individuals—but specifically for businesses.

Why Do You Need an EIN?

Having an EIN is essential for multiple aspects of running a business, especially if you are looking to establish credibility and operate in the U.S. Some of the key uses include:

Tax Filing – Required for federal and state tax reporting.
Opening a U.S. Bank Account – No bank will allow a business account without a valid EIN.
Hiring Employees – Legally required if you plan to hire staff in the U.S.
Amazon, Walmart & Other Marketplaces – Mandatory for seller account verification.
Business Credit & Loans – Needed to build business credit profiles.
Legal & Compliance Requirements – Proves your company exists and operates within U.S. regulations.

Who Needs an EIN?

LLCs and Corporations (single-member or multi-member).
Non-U.S. residents forming businesses in the U.S.
Partnerships and businesses with employees.
E-commerce sellers on platforms like Amazon, Walmart, or Shopify.

EIN Application Challenges for Non-U.S. Residents

Applying for an EIN can be tricky if you’re not based in the U.S., as the IRS requires specific documentation and may not accept online applications without a Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). This often leads to delays, rejections, or confusion.

At iFiler, we simplify the process by handling the entire application for you—even if you don’t have an SSN or ITIN.

Should I form an LLC or a C Corp?

Choosing the right business structure depends on your specific goals, and both options have their advantages. Here’s a general overview to help guide your decision:

An LLC is ideal for new businesses seeking liability protection combined with operational flexibility. It requires minimal administrative work and offers tax advantages, making it simpler to set up and manage.

A C Corporation is better suited if you plan to raise venture capital in the U.S. or are actively seeking investors. C Corporations allow easy sale and transfer of shares, making it easier to grow beyond initial ownership limits.
What is the best state in the US to form your company?
Will I get a US address for my company?

Yes, we will use the registered agent’s address as your company’s primary mailing address. You may use this address to receive mail, which will be opened, scanned, and uploaded to your secure online mailbox. If you prefer, mail can also be forwarded to your physical location for an additional fee plus postage costs. Please note that parcels and packages cannot be accepted at the registered agent’s address.

Additionally, you have the option to obtain a unique business mailing address during checkout.
What happens if I miss the tax filing deadline?

Generally, the IRS may impose a failure-to-file penalty if you miss the tax filing deadline or fail to submit your return by the extended deadline. This penalty can reach up to $25,000. The IRS charges 5% of your unpaid taxes for each full or partial month your return remains unfiled, with the total penalty based on the amount of taxes owed.
