Journalists and Photographers – New Look for Your OrgID in Freja

Freja collaborates with the Swedish Union of Journalists and the Swedish Association of Professional Photographers to issue a state-approved service e-ID in the form of a press pass to its members.

The first version has been live since September 2023 and now we are updating the design and functionality of the press pass to reflect design and security improvements we have made to Organisation ID in the meantime. This update will be live on 10.11.2026.

• If you are a new user you will be issued the new version automatically.
• If you are an old user, your old press pass will be updated automatically.

Design Updates

As mentioned above, your updated press ID comes with a new design and new features.

Journalists new design

Photographers new design

Look and feel

The design is cleaner, the colours better reflect the branding of the Swedish Bar Association and the data is organized more logically.

Security box

The security box with the scannable QR code in your press pass has been updated with a clear timeout countdown.

The scannable QR code contains your personnummer making it convenient for verification.

ID info page

There is also an additional information page that provides more information about your press pass including your email.

Security portal

Every OrgID in Freja, and that includes the press pass, can be verified via our security portal. This portal can be used by anyone to verify the authenticity of your press pass.
