When registering or applying, please ensure all required press credentials are uploaded. If you already have an OMAS account, please update your credentials for the new season. Late applications will not be accepted, and incomplete or outdated profiles may result in processing delays or in your request being declined.

 

Application Requirements:

Accreditation will only be granted to professional journalists, photographers (print/web, TV/Radio), and select content creators and social media reporters covering ISU events for editorial or news purposes. Representatives from ISU Member federations acting as media for their press and communication activities will also be considered.

  • Any additional documentation required by the host country (e.g., sanitary certifications/testing) – If needed

Restrictions for Non-Right Holders:

Non-Right Holders media (print/web journalists, photographers, etc.) must adhere to specific rules during ISU events. These include restrictions on filming in competition areas, practice sessions, and other designated spaces. Authorized areas for filming and photography are limited to the press conference room and outside the venue.

Special permissions for interviews or filming in restricted areas may be granted on a case-by-case basis. Requests must be submitted to the ISU Media Team (media@isu.org) at least one week prior to the event.
