  3. Address
    The address where your business is legally registered and where you’re considered a tax resident. In many cases, this will be the address where your business’s main corporate office, headquarters or principal business is located, or the address that your business lists on official company letterhead.
  4. Tax ID
    Your business’s Tax ID number as it appears on your relevant tax registration certificate, which might include but is not limited to:
