Overview

The number that unlocks everything

An EIN is your company's federal tax ID, the equivalent of a social security number for your business. Almost every bank and payment processor requires one before they'll open an account in your LLC's name.

Because you don't have an SSN, the IRS requires your EIN to be filed by mail or fax on Form SS-4. Foremint prepares the form correctly the first time and submits it on your behalf, then delivers the official IRS confirmation to your dashboard.
