The world football ruling body, FIFA has announced that Media accreditation to the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil(tm) for non-rights holders (NRH) is now open via the FIFA Media Channel.
The accreditation form is only for NRH media and only a very limited number of accreditations will be accepted.
The main purpose is to allow a small number of domestic broadcasters to cover the event on home soil.
As a general rule, NRH access will be limited to the stadiums on non-match days only.
Journalists working for a NRH radio or TV broadcaster and who has an approved FIFA Media Channel account will be able to apply for media accreditation without a Control Number and Control Key.
The accreditation application period will close on 4 April. Applications will be subject to confirmation closer to the event.
NRH representatives without an existing account in the FIFA Media Channel are kindly requested to register at http://media.FIFA.com/registration. For further questions, please contact nrh@fifa.org
