Application deadline 25 June 2019 at 12.00

Procedure

Before starting the registration process, make sure you have:

  • an ID/passport quality picture in JPEG format (.jpg)
  • the number of your passport or identity card
  • The scan of a letter confirming you are a bona fide journalist assigned to cover the event. Media representatives holding an EU or a Belgian official press card (delivered by the interior ministry) may upload this card instead of the letter. No other press cards are accepted.

For media representatives of Belgian nationality or residing in Belgium: you will be asked to print, sign and upload a form to give your authorisation to be security screened by the Belgian authorities.

Under certain conditions it is possible to organise a group registration/collection of badges for journalists working for the same media. For more info, see the info sheet. Please note that those users who do not have yet their ID/passport scanned by our security service in the system will need to come collect the badge in person.

You may be asked to send additional documents/information to demonstrate that you fulfil the media accreditation criteria. For more information on our accreditation policy, see our terms and conditions.

You will receive an acknowledgement of receipt by email and you may access your profile at any time to check the status of your application.

Journalists holding a 1-year badge (2019) do not need to register.

1-year badges can be collected, on an individual basis only, at the JL main accreditation desk on working days or at the accreditation centre of the LEX building during summits. Please ensure you have your ID/passport when collecting the badge.

Collection of badges

Accreditation badges must be collected in person from the LEX building (145 rue de la Loi, Brussels)

  • Saturday 29 June: 14.00 – 18.00
