    Most businessa licenses are issued by counties, which use them as a vehicle to collect taxes from the business.

    Since these taxes have NOTHING to do with the federal tax returns that most businesses have to file, there is typically NO REASON to have the federal EIN anywhere on the return.

    South Carolina may be different, but I doubt it.

    It would only have it on it if you provided it at the time of the license, and they placed it on there, But I have not seen any that had that number.
