Just copy and paste in your browser.

Also, it's listed under "Resources" on the left menu bar.

It will vary, but usually on the back of the tag at the bottom, with the letters RN in front of it. Most commonly you'll find two sets of numbers, the RN and the CA (Canadian equivalent of the RN).

I tried to type-in, in RN search but it didn't found anything. the RN numebr of my Pearl Jam T-shirt is 38819 and it was made by Anvil knitwear inc. NY

The RN is a required number for government agencies to track illegal activity (sweat shops, slavery, child labor, etc.) The RN number can prove the right manufaturer and where the shirt was made. It is the responsibility of the company to keep legit records of all manufacturing, and this is just another way to track it. The RN is not the same as a serial number. If a shirt is stolen, good luck finding it. It would be crazy to put a number on a shirt for each piece manufactured. Billions and billions are made each year.

Yes, every shirt from that manufacturer. Every Hanes shirt will have the same RN (whether it's a singlet or a children's t-shirt or a Beefy T), every Anvil shirt will have the same RN, etc. etc.
