ITIN Application (Form W-7) for Non-Residents
An ITIN is a personal US tax number for people who are not eligible for an SSN. You can apply with or without a US company. You do not need to post your passport or get a certified copy: we are affiliated with an IRS Certified Acceptance Agent (CAA) who verifies your passport for you.

Frequently asked questions
Can I apply for an ITIN without a tax return?+
Only if you qualify for an exception (for example certain treaty or third-party reporting cases). Most applicants attach a federal tax return.
Do I need to send my original passport or a certified copy?+
No. We are affiliated with an IRS Certified Acceptance Agent, so a clear scan of your passport photo page (all four corners visible) and signature page is enough.
How long does an ITIN take?+
Standard processing normally takes 8 to 12 weeks. We offer fast-track processing at the same price, which usually takes 5 to 6 weeks. Sometimes it takes longer than usual, especially in peak tax season or for applications from abroad.
Can I get an ITIN without a US company?+
Yes. You can apply as an individual, for example for a tax return or treaty claim, whether or not you own a US company.
