How to fill out the Vendor registration form

  1. 1

    Send it with a W-9 request

    Send this form together with a request for IRS Form W-9 so tax details come from the official form.

  2. 2

    Vendor fills company details

    Legal name exactly as on tax filings, DBA, entity type, EIN and years in business.

  3. 3

    Vendor fills addresses and contacts

    Business address, the address payments should go to, and sales and billing contacts.

  4. 4

    Products or services, NAICS codes if known, and any certifications with certifying agency.

  5. 5

    Choose payment method

    The vendor selects ACH, check or card. Collect bank account numbers through a secure channel, never by plain email.

Vendor registration form: questions people ask

Why not collect bank account numbers on this form?

Changed bank details sent by email are a common payment fraud. Collect them through a secure portal or protected PDF and confirm by phone.

Do we still need a W-9?

Yes, for US vendors. The W-9 is the official certification of the taxpayer ID used for Form 1099 reporting. This form references it but does not replace it.

What is a NAICS code?

A six-digit code that classifies a business's industry. Government and large buyers use it to sort vendors.

Can vendors fill this online?

Yes. Publish it as a web form with Form builder and export responses for your accounting system.
