I have been trying to start my shop here in Etsy. But I am not able to because Etsy has not validated my Business Registration Number.
I talked to Michigan State where my business is registered and they say that EIN is enough. However the EIN from IRS Document has been sitting there and uploaded in my newly started store for some time now, two weeks at least. And it was never verified. No one seems to be checking on it.
Upon some research, I found out that Entity Number from LARA of Michigan is the Business Registration Number. Who would have known?
Entity Number in Etsy was not part among the list of validated business numbers.
I already uploaded the new paper on my Entity Number which is just paid for this week for yearly registration. Hopefully this is it, and my shop gets finally validated.
Can someone assist me here. I need help to start my business.
