What Is an EIN and Why Do You Need It for Your Business?

Published by Nancy’s Trucking Permits

One of the most important steps when starting a business in the United States is getting your EIN.
Many people form an LLC or Corporation but don’t realize that without an EIN, your business can’t operate legally or open a proper bank account.

Let’s break down what an EIN is, why it matters, and how to get one easily.

❓ What Is an EIN?

The EIN stands for Employer Identification Number.
It’s like a Social Security Number—but for your business. It’s issued by the IRS (Internal Revenue Service).

Even if you don’t have employees, you still need an EIN to run your business properly.

🧾 What Is the EIN Used For?

You need an EIN to:

• Open a business bank account

• Register for federal taxes

• File tax returns as an LLC or Corporation

• Hire employees

• Apply for business credit or funding

⚠️ What Happens If You Don’t Have an EIN?

Without an EIN:

• You won’t be able to open a business bank account

• You may not be able to invoice clients properly

• You could face IRS penalties for operating improperly

🟪 Who Needs an EIN?

You must get an EIN if:

✅ You formed an LLC or Corporation
✅ You own a trucking business (MC Authority, DOT, etc.)
✅ You plan to hire staff
✅ You will file federal taxes as a business
