- Product

- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Searching for business visibility in the Microsoft Partner or AppSource publisher listings.

Before reaching out to support, ensure you have your official Microsoft Partner Network (MPN) ID and AppSource publisher account credentials ready for verification.
Contact Microsoft Partner Support
The most direct way to resolve directory visibility issues is by reaching out to the official Microsoft Partner Support team for verification.
Because partner directories are managed centrally by Microsoft, missing listings are usually related to backend vetting, region-specific eligibility, or profile syncing delays.
Go to the official Microsoft Partner Center Support page.
Sign in using the official credentials associated with your Microsoft Partner or AppSource publisher account.
Request the support team to verify your organization's AppSource publisher profile, eligibility status, and regional directory listing configurations.
Verify Partner Profile Completeness
Sometimes a company is hidden from the directory due to incomplete profile information or pending legal agreements.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take for a new company to appear in the Microsoft Partner Directory?
It typically takes 24 to 48 hours for directory updates to reflect globally once your partner profile is fully verified, approved, and published by Microsoft.
Does operating in multiple countries affect my Microsoft Partner listing?
Yes, your directory visibility can be region-specific. You may need to ensure your organization's business locations and regional profiles are properly configured and verified within the Partner Center.
Can I publish apps to AppSource without being visible in the Partner Directory?
Publishing to AppSource requires an active and verified Microsoft Partner Network account. While the app listing is separate, your publisher profile is intrinsically tied to your partner directory presence.
