We investigate the prospects for detecting tiny violations of Lorentz symmetry in deep inelastic scattering in the context of the future electron-ion collider. Preliminary results suggest estimated bounds on quark-sector coefficients for Lorentz violation can be extracted at sensitivities of parts in 103 − 106.
