Employer Identification Number. The Employer Identification Number (EIN), also known as the Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) or the Federal Tax Identification Number, is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to business entities operating in the United States for the purposes of identification.
You are not issued a D-U-N-S Number when you apply for an EIN because EINs are issued by the IRS for tax purposes and D-U-N-S Numbers are issued by Dun & Bradstreet, for credit reporting purposes. One possible reason business owners confuse an EIN with a D-U-N-S Number is because they are both 9-digit numbers that identify a business. They are also both free numbers that can act in much the same fashion as social security number can do for an individual.
