Get an EIN Verification Letter

You have just set up your sole proprietorship, corporation, limited liability company or partnership. What's next? Perhaps the next step is to open a business bank account, obtain a credit card merchant account, transact with vendors and/or apply for government licenses. In order to do any of these next steps, you may be asked to provide verification of your EIN number. Most banks, vendors, and government agencies expect you to provide a copy of the originally IRS-issued notice CP 595. A notice CP 595 is also known as an EIN confirmation letter or EIN verification letter. For every federal tax ID number that is issued, an accompanying EIN confirmation letter is issued and mailed to the registered business address. The typical mailing time is between 2 to 4 weeks. Domestic entities may receive this EIN confirmation letter within 2 to 3 weeks, while international entities may receive this EIN verification letter within 3 to 4 weeks, or possibly even longer.

Unfortunately, many individuals misplace the original document or never receive the document in the first place. It's not uncommon for the EIN verification letter to never reach its intended destination, especially when mailed to international addresses. If you have lost the original EIN documentation or never received it in the first place, there is no need to panic. We can help you obtain a replacement EIN confirmation letter. Simply scroll down the page and complete the EIN verification letter request form.

EIN matching, validation and verification has become a standard procedure in credit card processing and banking. Even a small difference in the legal entity name such as using any form of punctuation (like a comma, period, apostrophe, and/or ampersand instead of using the word "and") and/or having an extra space can create a mismatch with the information registered with the IRS. Omitting the words "LLC", "Corporation", "Corp." "Incorporated", etc., in the legal entity name would create a mismatch as well. If there is a mismatch, the IRS can require the merchant processor to withhold 28% of the revenue arising from the credit card transactions. The IRS does this to ensure that businesses do not have multiple tax ID numbers for the purposes of hiding and/or underreporting bank or credit card transactions.
