A Comprehensive Guide to the SS-4 Form for Non-US Entrepreneurs
Form SS-4 is the IRS application used to request an Employer Identification Number for a business. It collects the entity's legal name, mailing address, entity type, responsible party and reason for applying, and it can be submitted by fax, mail or phone when the online application is not available. Founders without a US Social Security Number use this form as their route to an EIN.
