Setting up an EIN

Setting up an EIN for your Eight Days location

 

Before opening a bank account and credit cards, you’ll need to set up an EIN.

 

To set up an EIN

 

  1. Getting an EIN (employer identification number) is a free service offered to businesses by the Internal Revenue Service.
  2. Your Employer Identification Number (EIN) is your federal tax ID. You need it to pay federal taxes, hire employees, open a bank account, and apply for business licenses and permits.
  3. An EIN is a unique nine-digit number that identifies your business for tax purposes. 
  4. As a business owner, you’ll need an EIN to open a business bank account, apply for business credit cards, apply for business licenses and file your tax returns.
