ForeignEIN is an administrative service that obtains an EIN and an official IRS confirmation document from the IRS on behalf of its clients, for existing US companies. It is not a law firm, a tax advisor, or a registered agent, and provides no legal or tax advice. The client is the responsible party of their own company and is solely responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide. ForeignEIN does not open, and does not guarantee the opening of, any bank or payment account; the decisions of such institutions remain entirely their own.
