The VLBI relativistic geometric time delay model of transformation from the barycentric frame of the Solar System to the local frame is derived with the requirement of millimeter precision. The result differs from some other models in an additional term (2Φ@)/(c^2)·δt_0 caused by the gravitational potential of the Sun. It also differs from the models of Shapiro et al. (1989) and Hellings (1986), that have been applied to the CALC 7.0, in the additional terms ·δt_0 and ·δt_0 caused by the geocentric velocity R. The maximum order of magnitude of these two additional terms can reach 6.6* 10^(-12)s and 3.3*10^(-12)s respectively. Our result also includes producted term △t_v·, which was ignored in the previous results, and its maximum order of magnitude can reach a few millimeters. The quantity △t_v involves the gravitational retardation term △t_(grav,⊙) caused by the sun, the tropospheric and ionospheric refraction delays, and the axis offset refraction delay. In this paper, a comparison with the recent results obtained by Zhu, et al,(1988) and Sorrel, et al. (1990) is also made. According to their definition of b, the physical baseline vector between two antennas, the term — should not have a negative sign. On the contrary, the ·δt_0 term should have a negative sign. It becomes the term —·δt_0, so as to keep consistency with the results derived by others. As a conclusion, all the possible terms that are larger than 1 ps should be taken into account in the relativistic VLBI theory model. For an accuracy of 1 ps our result differs from all those that have been published earlier.
