U.S. Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)

live testingcurated4 patternsproximity 300recommended confidence 75 (medium)

Nine digits starting with 9, with the fourth and fifth digits in the ranges 50-65, 70-88, 90-92, or 94-99. Formatted or unformatted.

This SIT contains a "not any of these" exclusion group: a match is suppressed if it is preceded by "Phone Conference ID:". Microsoft added that because Teams conference IDs were lighting up ITIN detections. Your own custom SITs can use the same trick.
