See the mvprobit command.

There might be a multinomial probit command, but if so I am not aware of

it.  If it doesn't exist, it may be, because as Long (1997, p. 83)
points 
out, for models with nominal dependent variables that have more than 2 
categories, the logit model may be preferred because the corresponding 
probit model is too computationally demanding.
