Why DoorDash suspended payouts

The IRS requires DoorDash to maintain accurate legal and tax information for merchant partners. If the Tax Identification Number (TIN) and/or legal business name on file doesn’t match IRS records, DoorDash is required to suspend payouts until the issue is resolved.

Once DoorDash receives valid documentation and your information is corrected, the payout restriction can be lifted.

How to submit corrected tax information

All documents must be sent by email.

Make sure the information in your Merchant Portal exactly matches the documentation you submit. Mismatches may delay review.

If you have a valid Social Security card:

  1. Update your information in the Merchant Portal so it matches your Social Security card

  2. Make a copy of the card

  3. Email the copy to [email protected] and include “CP2100 2nd B-Notice” in the subject line
