What is my account number?

An account number is assigned to any debt processed by the Iowa Department of Revenue. Your account number is identified on assessment and billing notices from the Department. The account number is not a social security number or FEIN.

Note: The Iowa Department of Revenue does not accept payments from financial institutions located outside the United States. 

Proof of Payment

A receipt for confirmation of payments will be provided as proof of payment. This number can be provided to the Department of Revenue if you need an immediate release of your registration block or other legal actions being taken.
