Media

Media representatives including journalists, photographers and videographers who are not part of official delegations, must apply for accreditation through the United Nations Media Accreditation and Liaison Unit (MALU) online form (https://indico.un.org/UNHQ/#media). When completing the form, applicants should select Temporary Pass in the Pass Details section and enter the conference title and dates in the Assignment fields. Applicants will be required to submit a letter of assignment from a bona fide media organization addressed to the United Nations, samples of their work, and a government issued identification. Independent broadcast or film production companies must provide a letter from a broadcast organization or film distributor which has committed to air or distribute the work. The media accreditation review is open from 1 September and close on 15 October 2025. More information about the general accreditation process for media at UNHQ can be found here: https://www.un.org/en/media/accreditation/request.shtml

Media representatives who are a part of official delegations, including journalists and official photo and video, must be registered through their respective permanent/observer mission or liaison office in New York through the online “eRegistration system”, which is available on the e-deleGATE portal at https://e-delegate.un.org. The registration is to open from 1 September to 15 October 2025. Designated e-Registration focal points may refer to the instructions. Spokespersons, communications advisers, information officers without camera equipment do not need to apply for a media pass.

Delegation media personnel seeking on-site registration will be instructed to submit the request through their respective permanent/observer mission or liaison office in New York via the online eRegistration system. The registration centre and onsite registration is scheduled to open on 30 October. The registration centre will be open through 6 November (1pm) but onsite registration will close on 5 November at (1 pm). Please note that on-site registration is not possible for media that are not part of official delegations, who have to register by 15 October.
