Three numbers, three agencies
Asking for the wrong number is a common reason a search comes back empty.
| Number | Issued by | What it identifies |
|---|---|---|
| Federal EIN | Internal Revenue Service | Identifies the business for federal tax. It is the same number in every state. |
| Entity number | Alaska Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development, Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing (Corporations Section) | Identifies the entity's record in the state registry. |
| Alaska business license number | Alaska Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing, Business Licensing Section | Alaska has no statewide sales tax account, so the number most businesses carry is the state business license number. It is separate from the Corporations Section entity number and from the federal EIN issued by the IRS. |
