Guidelines and accreditation

Co-operation between the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 in various different aspects of media has become both increasingly widespread and demanding.

In order to simplify the process of stadium operations but also keep rights and duties within the reporting of football universal for all arms of the media, the DFL Deutsche Fußball Liga GmbH has attached a set of implementation rules to accompany the guidelines for media partners.

Responsibility for the implementation and supervision of these rules for media partners lies with the clubs and companies. The guidelines protect not least certain basic rights, which represent the existing source of revenue of the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2.

The respective home club in the Bundesliga or Bundesliga 2 is responsible for individual accreditations. Employees or representatives of accredited media outlets and service providers must apply for accreditation using the following forms. Our data privacy information for the accreditation process for the matches of Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 can be found here.
