You Must File a US Tax Return
Foreign-owned single-member LLCs, US-source income and refund claims all require a personal US tax ID on the filing. Without an ITIN, your return cannot be processed properly.

Who Needs an ITIN
Do you need an ITIN? Most non-residents in these situations do
An ITIN is a 9-digit number issued by the IRS to individuals who need a US taxpayer ID but are not eligible for a Social Security Number. It is a tax ID only — it does not authorise work in the US and does not change any immigration status.
Stripe or PayPal Asks for a Tax ID
US payment platforms ask non-residents for a US tax ID during verification. An ITIN is the ID the IRS issues for exactly this position — when you have no SSN.
You Own a US LLC or Earn US Income
Freelancers billing US clients, Amazon and Shopify sellers, and LLC owners receiving US income regularly need an ITIN for filings, withholding refunds and platform paperwork.
You Live Outside the US
No US address, no visa and no SSN required. Non-residents from any country can apply for an ITIN — and with our paperless process, you do it entirely from home.
100% Paperless Process
No embassy queue. No passport in the post. No guesswork.
The traditional ITIN route scares people off for good reason: embassy appointments, certified copies, and the risk of mailing your original passport to another country and waiting weeks for it to come back.
Our process removes all of that. Your documents are verified without the originals leaving your hands, your Form W-7 is prepared and checked by a specialist who files these routinely, and the application goes to the IRS with the supporting reason documented properly — the step where most self-filed applications get rejected.
- No embassy visitYou never attend an embassy or consulate for this application.
- No mailing your original passportYour passport stays with you for the entire process.
- Rejection-proofing before filingYour reason for applying and supporting documents are checked first — before the IRS ever sees them.
- One point of contact on WhatsAppUpdates from a specialist who already knows your case — not a call center.
Documents you will need
For most applicants, the list is short. We confirm your exact list on the free consultation, because the supporting document depends on your reason for applying:
- Valid passportThe standard identity document for a non-resident ITIN application.
- Your personal details for Form W-7Name, date of birth, foreign address and passport details — shared securely over WhatsApp/email.
- Proof of your reason for applyingFor example: a US tax return to file, your LLC records, or income documents from US clients or platforms.
Honest note on timing: the IRS processes ITIN applications manually, so timelines vary. We give you a clear, honest estimate for your case before you pay — and never a guaranteed date we cannot control.

Know The Difference
ITIN vs EIN vs SSN — which one do you actually need?
These three numbers are constantly confused. Here is the simple version — and why many non-resident founders end up needing two of them.
| ITIN | EIN | SSN | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it is | A personal US tax ID for an individual | A US tax ID for a business (LLC, corporation) | A US Social Security Number for an individual |
| Who can get it | Anyone who needs a US tax ID but is not eligible for an SSN | Business owners — including foreign owners with no SSN | US citizens and authorised residents only |
| How you apply | IRS Form W-7 — we prepare & file it for you | IRS Form SS-4 — see our EIN for non-residents page | Social Security Administration — not available to most non-residents |
| Used for | Filing personal US taxes, refund claims, Stripe/PayPal verification | Business banking, hiring, business tax filings | US employment and social security benefits |
Already have an ITIN? ITINs expire if they are not used on a US federal tax return for three consecutive years, and older ITINs have expired in batches under IRS rules. If yours has expired, message us — we handle renewals as well as first-time applications.
ITIN FAQs
Questions about getting an ITIN, answered honestly
Everything non-residents ask us before applying — including the parts other services gloss over.
What is an ITIN and who needs one?
An ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is a 9-digit tax processing number issued by the IRS to people who need a US taxpayer ID but are not eligible for a Social Security Number (SSN). You need one if you must file a US tax return, claim a tax refund or treaty benefit, report US income from freelancing or an LLC, or verify your identity with services like Stripe and PayPal as a non-resident.
Can I really get an ITIN without visiting an embassy or mailing my passport?
Yes — that is exactly how our 100% paperless process works. You never visit an embassy and you never mail your original passport anywhere. Your identity documents are verified without the originals leaving your hands, we prepare your Form W-7 correctly, and the application is filed with the IRS for you.
What documents do I need for an ITIN application?
In most cases you need a valid passport, your basic personal details for Form W-7, and a document that shows why you need an ITIN — for example a US tax return to file, an LLC ownership record, or income documents from US clients or platforms. On your free WhatsApp consultation we confirm the exact list for your situation before anything is filed.
How long does the IRS take to issue an ITIN?
ITIN applications are processed manually by the IRS, so timelines vary and no honest service can guarantee an exact date. Before you pay, we give you a clear, honest estimate for your case and keep you updated while your application is in progress. Your ITIN assignment letter is delivered to you digitally as soon as it is issued.
What is the difference between an ITIN, an EIN and an SSN?
An SSN is only for US citizens and authorised residents — if you are not eligible for one, you cannot get one. An ITIN is the personal tax ID for individuals who are not eligible for an SSN. An EIN is a tax ID for a business, such as your LLC or corporation. Many non-resident founders need both: an EIN for the company and an ITIN for themselves.
Does an ITIN expire? Can you renew an expired ITIN?
Yes, ITINs can expire — for example if they are not used on a US federal tax return for three consecutive years, older ITINs have also expired in batches under IRS rules. If your ITIN has expired, it must be renewed before you file or claim a refund. Send us your situation on WhatsApp and we will check whether you need a fresh application or a renewal, and handle it for you.
