Press Credentials


Press Credentials are the best way to identify and legitimize members of the press, and others involved in journalistic activities. A valid press pass will greatly assist a journalist with access to the people and the locations of an unfolding news event. Each iNA press pass is registered and can be verified online 24/7 to validate the press pass holder.

How long are they valid for?

iNA Press Credentials are offered in varying validity packages of 1, 2, 3 and 4 year validity periods.

  • 1 year = $100
  • 2 years = $150
  • 3 years = $200
  • 4 years = $250
