Vendor Registration System
Introduction
The Vendor Registration System (VRS) is now available. Prospective suppliers are invited
to register in the system; this is free of charge. It is a web-based on-line registration
system with secure access using a bona fide USER NAME and PASSWORD assigned to each eligible
company. The System is available in both English and French. Once registered vendors
can update their registration information anytime and are advised to change their PASSWORD
regularly. Part of the registration procedure is the identification of the types and classes
of goods or services that your company is actively selling or providing, using a standardized
classification list provided by the system, with an option to suggest new types or classes of
goods/service as required. This will ensure that your company will be able to receive
information on a regular basis about market surveys, RFQs, ITBs, RFPs, notices of award of
contracts, and other information that is directly relevant to your current business portfolio.
Companies already registered with WIPO will receive their VRS account information shortly.

Registration under WIPO’s VRS does not automatically result in pre-approval under the UNGM, of
which WIPO is an active member and user. Therefore, it is necessary to follow completely
separate registration procedures for WIPO’s VRS and for the UNGM. Companies who are
interested in registering under UNGM may do so by clicking

VRS Usage Policy and Legal Disclaimers
The WIPO Vendor Registration System (VRS) is an electronic database that allows you or your
company to register its name and area of expertise with the World Intellectual Property
Organization (WIPO). The VRS is only a database. Registration with the WIPO VRS does not constitute
in any way pre-clearance or pre-qualification for the participation in any WIPO procurement
activity.
WIPO will use its best efforts to ensure that potential vendors registered with the VRS will
be informed of WIPO procurement activities that are relevant to their expertise. However, WIPO is
not responsible for any failure to contact potential vendors registered with the VRS.
The WIPO VRS is an electronic internet based system of information and it is therefore subject
to change without notice. WIPO reserves the right to change and update this site and the
information posted on the site at any time. It is the sole responsibility of users of this site to
regularly consult the VRS for any changes which may be made to the information found here.
WIPO is not responsible for any fee that a potential vendor may incur as a result of
registering at this site.
