Who Needs an EIN?

Almost every trucking business needs an EIN. You need it to open a business bank account, apply for a DOT number and operating authority, hire employees, file business taxes, and work with brokers and shippers who require a tax ID.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get an EIN myself? Yes, through the IRS website. We offer this service for convenience and to make sure the application is filled out correctly for a trucking business.

Do I need a business entity first? You can get an EIN as a sole proprietor. But if you plan to form an LLC, do that first so the EIN is issued to your LLC rather than you personally.

How long does it take? We get your EIN the same business day we file your application, unless a manual filing is required. In these cases, it may take the IRS ~2 weeks to create your new EIN.

Is an EIN the same as a state tax ID? No. An EIN is federal and issued by the IRS. Some states also require a separate state tax ID for state taxes.
