If you can't verify EIN number using the documents mentioned above, follow these steps: Call the IRS Business & Specialty Tax Line at 800-829-4933, which operates from a.m. to p.m., Monday through Friday. An assistant will ask for identifying information before providing the number. Why?

You can verify the EIN with the IRS TIN Match system or use Tax1099's super fast real-time TIN match program (more on this as you scroll). If the EIN and the legal name of the entity match the records of the IRS, it's an EIN match.

If the company is publicly traded and registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), you can use the SEC's EDGAR system to look up such a company's EIN for free. You can do an EIN lookup for nonprofit organizations on Guidestar.

Identify the information that has changed (LLC name, removal or addition of owners, address/location of the LLC). All other changes should be mailed to the IRS based on the state the entity's principal business, office or agency is located. The IRS will send a letter confirming receipt of your updated information.

You can look up another business's EIN using the SEC's Edgar system, as long as the business is a public company. To verify a charitable organization's EIN, you could check the IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search tool. You may also be able to hire an online company to do the research on your behalf.

You can contact the IRS directly and request a replacement confirmation letter called a 147C letter. Start by calling the IRS Business & Specialty Tax Line toll free at 1-800-829-4933 (or if you are calling outside the United States at 267-941-1099) between AM and PM EST.
