In the race's other classifications, {{UCI team code|RAB|2013a}}'s Wilco Kelderman was the winner of the white jersey for the young rider classification as he was the highest placed rider born in 1988 or later, finishing in fifth place overall after taking the jersey from {{UCI team code|FDJ|2013a}}'s Thibaut Pinot during the final time trial. Matthias Brändle of {{UCI team code|IAM|2013}} won the green jersey for the most points gained in intermediate sprints, while the pink jersey for the King of the Mountains classification went to Marcus Burghardt of the {{UCI team code|BMC|2013}}.{{cite news|url=http://www.bmcracingteam.com/index.php?id=115&tx_ttnews%5Byear%5D=2013&tx_ttnews%5Bmonth%5D=04&tx_ttnews%5Bday%5D=28&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=1371&cHash=a4127471803e9b19ecc978ca33bae908|title=BMC Racing Team's Burghardt Is Romandie's Mountain King|date=28 April 2013|access-date=28 April 2013|work={{UCI team code|BMC|2013}}|publisher=BMC Trading|archive-date=2 May 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130502101802/http://www.bmcracingteam.com/index.php?id=115&tx_ttnews%5Byear%5D=2013&tx_ttnews%5Bmonth%5D=04&tx_ttnews%5Bday%5D=28&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=1371&cHash=a4127471803e9b19ecc978ca33bae908|url-status=usurped}} The teams classification was won by {{UCI team code|SKY|2013|nolink=yes}} for the second year in a row, after placing Richie Porte inside the top ten overall as well as Froome.
Teams
As the Tour de Romandie was a UCI World Tour event, all UCI ProTeams were invited automatically and obligated to send a squad. Originally, eighteen ProTeams were scheduled to be invited to the race, with two other squads – {{UCI team code|EUC|2013}} and {{UCI team code|IAM|2013}} – given wildcard places,{{cite news|url=http://www.wielerland.nl/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=24940&Itemid=36|language=nl|title=Wildcards Tour de Romandie voor IAM Cycling en Europcar|trans-title=Tour de Romandie wildcards for IAM Cycling and Europcar|work=Wielerland.nl|publisher=Wielerland Fietsvriendelijk|date=13 February 2013|access-date=28 April 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303225425/http://www.wielerland.nl/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=24940&Itemid=36|archive-date=3 March 2016|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}} and as such, would have formed the event's 20-team peloton. {{UCI team code|KAT|2013}} subsequently regained their ProTour status after an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.{{cite news|url=http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/cas-orders-worldtour-licence-for-katusha|title=CAS orders WorldTour licence for Katusha|work=Cyclingnews.com|publisher=Future plc|date=15 February 2013|access-date=28 April 2013}}{{cite news|url=http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/uci-confirms-19-worldtour-teams-for-2013|title=UCI confirms 19 WorldTour teams for 2013|work=Cyclingnews.com|publisher=Future plc|date=18 February 2013|access-date=28 April 2013}} With {{UCI team code|KAT|2013|nolink=yes}} not originally invited to the race, race organisers announced their inclusion to the race, bringing the total number of teams competing to twenty-one.

Classification leadership table
In the 2013 Tour de Romandie, four different jerseys were awarded. For the general classification, calculated by adding each cyclist's finishing times on each stage, and allowing time bonuses in mass-start stages, the leader received a yellow jersey. This classification was considered the most important of the 2013 Tour de Romandie, and the winner of the classification was considered the winner of the race.
Additionally, there was a young rider classification, which awarded a white jersey. This was decided the same way as the general classification, but only riders born after 1 January 1988 were eligible to be ranked in the classification. There was also a mountains classification, the leadership of which was marked by a pink jersey. In the mountains classification, points were won by reaching the top of a climb before other cyclists, with more points available for the higher-categorised climbs; there were fourteen categorised climbs in the race, split into three distinctive categories.
The fourth jersey represented the sprints classification, marked by a green jersey. In the sprints classification, cyclists received points for finishing in the top 3 at intermediate sprint points during each stage, with the exception of the individual time trial stages. There was also a classification for teams, in which the times of the best three cyclists per team on each stage were added together; the leading team at the end of the race was the team with the lowest total time.
