Illinois Federal Tax ID numbers are issued by the IRS in a nine-digit format such as 12-3456789.

They uniquely identify your business to the government in the same way that Social Security Numbers do for individuals. But various non-government vendors will also request the number during routine commerce in Illinois. For example, Illinois banks will require you to provide one before opening a business bank account.

Illinois Federal Tax ID / EIN numbers are valid in all fifty states. Many states issue "state tax IDs", which can go by names like sales tax number, resale number, and wholesale number. But any Illinois business that requires a state tax ID will also require the nine-digit Illinois Federal Tax ID that you can acquire right here.
