How this service works
Crisp authoritative IRS tax-exempt status for a US nonprofit by EIN: whether it is currently tax-exempt, listed in Publication 78 as able to receive deductible contributions with the eligibility code, whether its status was automatically revoked with the revocation and reinstatement dates, and its 501(c) subsection.
Output
Returns a structured record indicating whether the organization is currently tax-exempt, its 501(c) subsection code, whether it appears in IRS Publication 78 (and the associated deductibility eligibility code), and if applicable, the dates of any automatic revocation and subsequent reinstatement.
Example use cases
Donor due diligence before large gift
“Before I wire $50,000 to the American Red Cross, can you verify that EIN 53-0196605 is currently IRS tax-exempt and listed in Publication 78 so my donation will be deductible?”
Grant compliance check for foundation
“Our foundation needs to confirm that EIN 94-1156621 — the Sierra Club Foundation — has an active 501(c)(3) status and hasn't had any automatic revocation before we approve this grant.”
Nonprofit status audit for payroll platform
“We're onboarding a new nonprofit client with EIN 52-1693387 — can you pull their IRS tax-exempt status, their 501(c) type, and check if they were ever automatically revoked?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://payai.agentstools.dev/nonprofit/statusWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, IRS-sourced verification of a US nonprofit's tax-exempt status by EIN — especially for donor due diligence, grant compliance, payroll platform onboarding, or any workflow requiring confirmation of 501(c) classification, Publication 78 listing, or revocation history. Prefer this over general web searches or third-party charity databases when regulatory accuracy and official IRS data are required.
Side effects
- EIN not found in IRS database — organization may not exist or may never have been tax-exempt
- Invalid EIN format — must be exactly 9 digits
- Organization was revoked and not reinstated — status returned as not currently exempt
- Network timeout or IRS data source unavailability
- Rate limit or payment failure for the x402 micropayment
