A Business Identification Number (BIN) is a state tax id number issued by business licensing agencies in Oregon. It's typically used for reporting payroll and taxes at the state level. Your Oregon BIN is an 8-digit number with a dash. (For example, 1234567-8).

All employers with paid employees working in Oregon must register for a business identification number (BIN) to report and pay Oregon payroll taxes. Corporations without employees must also register to report compensation paid to corporate officers.

Don't confuse this with your employer identification number (EIN), which is a 9-digit number assigned by the IRS. Your BIN ID is not the same thing as your Business Registry Number. Oregon issues a registry number at the time you register your business with the Secretary of State's Corporation Division.
