This paper provides multivariate extensions of the work on generalized quasi factorial series distributions reported by \textit{S. B. Nandi} and \textit{K. K. Das} [Sankyā, Ser. B 56, No. 2, 147-164 (1994; Zbl 0838.60010)] and \textit{K. K. Das} [ibid. 58, No. 2, 159-169 (1996; Zbl 0878.60010)]. An expansion is introduced for a real valued function \(f(a_{1},\dots ,a_{m})\) of \(m\) nonnegative integer valued variables \(a_{1},\dots ,a_{m}\) that is based on a multivariate expansion of Gould polynomials. It is used to define two families of discrete multivariate distributions with nonnegative integer components that are called generalized quasi multivariate factorial series distributions. The first family includes some common multivariate distributions such as the multivariate power series, multivariate hypergeometric, multinomial, and several other not so common distributions associated that depend on the choice for \(f(.)\). The second family, whose sample space is restricted to the region \(a_1+\dots +a_m \leq n\), contains the family of multivariate hypergeometric and multinomial distributions.
