Tax Identification Number for a Corporation
A corporation must have a federal employer identification number for two reasons:
- A corporation is a separate legal entity, separate and apart from its owners (shareholders).
- A corporation may be an employer.
Even if you're the only shareholder/worker in your corporation, the corporation is an employer and you are its employee and all employer's must have a Federal Employer Identification Number.
