Employer Identification Number (EIN) is the tax identification number for your company in the United States. Without EIN, you can not open a bank account, so you can not send or receive payments. Likewise, you can not use Stripe, PayPal etc. payment methods, you can not open a corporate account in Amazon, eBay, Etsy etc. Most importantly, you can not file a tax return and you may face big amounts of penalties. In short, without EIN, your company in the US will not be valid, so the first thing you should do after establishing your company in the US is to get EIN from IRS.

Individuals who are not citizens of the United States can request an EIN only by fax or mail, by filling out SS4 form completely and correctly, by faxing it or sending it by mail. Considering the fact that USA hosts hundreds, maybe even thousands, of newly established companies every day, this period has been quite long lately and has increased to 2.5-3 months with the covid-19 outbreak. Although a little more normalization has been observed in terms of time recently, still EIN can not be provided by IRS before 4-5 weeks at the earliest.

If you want to open a seller account on Amazon, unfortunately, you have to wait for at least another 45-50 days after all this period for IRS to share your EIN online to 3rd parties like Amazon, eBay etc.
