Vendor Registry

Last updated or reviewed on December 13, 2024

Thank you for your interest in doing business with the City of Asheville. To be notified about contracting opportunities, as well as receiving purchase order or payment, the City requires vendors to be registered. Registered vendors are visible to and searchable by all City departments for solicitation and purchasing opportunities.

Vendor Registration

To register as a new vendor or to update existing vendor information, please use one of the following automated forms:

Domestic (US Vendor Registration Form (W9)
Foreign Vendor Registration Form (W8)

These automated forms will require you to create a digital signature. Following submission, you will receive a copy of the completed vendor form via email.

What to expect next

The City’s Vendor Administration team will send a confirmation email once your registration is complete and a City of Asheville Vendor ID # has been assigned to your company. Any requests for missing, incomplete, or illegible information may delay this process. Please allow 2 business days for processing.
