Request samples/Login feature
To requests samples through GGBN you must register as a user. To do so click on "Login" in the top menu. We appreciate if you fill out the complete contact information, since these data can then be forwarded to the sample holding institution, but this is not mandatory.
Shopping Cart If you have added samples to your cart you can go to "View cart" or "Shopping Cart" via the menu or the buttons on right. In step 1 you will see an overview of requested samples and if it is a CITES taxon again a note. Please make sure you belong to an institution registered with CITES, otherwise you can't loan such samples. Go to "Checkout" to proceed.
In step 2 the samples are grouped by holding institution. In this example we preorder at two different institutions. You can add a comment to them if you want. When clicking "Order now" your preorder is placed. GGBN forwards your request to the holding institutions. We do not forward your complete order, but only sample information relevant for the sample holding collection.

- Note that the samples are owned by the sample holding member institutions, hence this request is not binding. They will contact you shortly to provide you with any futher information such as MTA signature, special loan conditions or fees
- In case you are requesting samples from multiple institutions they will ONLY receive the request for their own samples!
