This template provides an external link to a search of the Employer Identification Number (EIN)—also known as the Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) or the Federal Tax Identification Number—used by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of the United States.
Dashes are stripped.
As of mid-2021, the search on the IRS web site only returns results if the EIN corresponds to a Tax Exempt Organization.
Usage[edit]
The template requires an EIN number to be given:
Call: {{EIN|123456789}} Result: EIN 123456789
This template also supports up to 9 EINs, so the template comes in helpful to conveniently format lists of EINs (for example, in tables):
Call: {{EIN|012345678|123456789|234567890}} Result: EIN 012345678, 123456789, 234567890
For leadouts different from the default "," this can be specified using the optional |leadout= parameter:
Call: {{EIN|012345678|123456789|234567890|leadout=and}} Result: EIN 012345678, 123456789 and 234567890
The template also supports plain links using the |plainlink= parameter:
Call: {{EIN|012345678|123456789|234567890|plainlink=yes}} Result: 012345678, 123456789, 234567890
Call: {{EIN|012345678|123456789|234567890|leadout=and|plainlink=yes}} Result: 012345678, 123456789 and 234567890
