Can I get an EIN without an SSN or ITIN?

Yes. Every US LLC needs an EIN, and you do not need an SSN or an ITIN to get one. This is the single most common worry we hear, and it stops nobody.

What it does change is the route. The IRS's online EIN tool is only open to applicants who already have an SSN or ITIN, so your application goes through the IRS's international unit instead. We prepare and file it for you, and we list you as the Responsible Party — which is what the IRS requires.

Standard IRS processing for non-resident applicants runs 40–60 days. Our Startup and Business plans include Express EIN at 10–12 business days.
