After few good years, EMI (do not want to publicly display the name of the bank) suddenly ask for a document that does not exist

Amo, you are heavily misinformed and, I must say - in trouble. Two most important notes:

You do need EIN as you need to fill at least form 5472 (About Form 5472, Information Return of a 25% Foreign-Owned U.S. Corporation or a Foreign Corporation Engaged in a U.S. Trade or Business | Internal Revenue Service) every year, and paired form 1120 (About Form 1120, U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return | Internal Revenue Service). Otherwise you are looking into 25k fine per year.

Act quickly, talk with tax advisor...

Just apply for an EIN, they are easy to get. Takes about 2 weeks. I was in Australia when I got two last time. Once you have an EIN you can also use Mercury | Banking built for startups as well (as someone who doesn't reside in the US).

i think to use the us is extreamly dangerous, any formal mistake , or any complain against your company fall under us jurisdictions that make you very vulnerable. better close it and find another place, there is plenty
