Apple Business Connect Will Not Accept My Valid EIN

I have the same issue. Very frustrating as I can’t claim my business until I verify the EIN and upload my utility bill.

That did not work for me.

Didn't work for me Apple please help

I’m having the same issue today, so I’m guessing there might be a problem with their API that checks the FEINs against the IRS register.

Issue is still continuing today -_-

I followed the Pro Tip of removing the first two digits and the hyphen from my EIN and the form submitted just fine. It's a terrible workaround and this whole system is poorly designed. Clearly, Apple lacks maturity in certain aspects of the business world.

I followed this tip and it worked for me. "Try it without the first two numbers and the “-“. "

Thank you so much! This has been bugging me for weeks!

Thank you very much. That worked.

This work around did not work for me.. I am still unable to set up the account and I know my EIN number is correct.

Anyone else have any other work arounds??

My apple account is valid what can i do

I’m not sure how long your company has been running but it took me 72hrs.
