What is the role of the Hong Kong Photo News Press Card in China?

The photojournalist press card has a relatively limited role in China. Due to belonging to China, the Photojournalist press card may be regarded as a form of identification in China, but the specific situation will vary depending on individual circumstances. On some specific occasions, holding this card can facilitate reporters' reporting and interviewing work. However, it should be noted that due to the different legal systems and policies from the mainland, the Photojournalist Press Card does not have the same rights and privileges as domestic related certificates (such as the Chinese Press Card). In addition, according to domestic regulations, journalists holding photojournalist credentials must still abide by relevant domestic laws and regulations and perform corresponding procedures in accordance with domestic regulations when engaging in news work in the country. Therefore, the actual role of the Photojournalist Card in China is limited. Journalists holding this card must also consider the requirements of relevant domestic regulations and procedures when engaging in news work in China.
