The process of getting a tax ID number, also known as an Employer Identification Number (EIN), involves submitting an application to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Depending on the type of entity, this can be done online or through mail. Generally, the process requires providing details about the entity, such as its legal name, entity type and address. Once the application is received and processed by the IRS, an EIN will be provided to the entity.
