An example of the international press identification.
An international press identification is a document carried by journalists. It is not recognized as valid documentation for entry purposes in Arstotzka at any point. This policy leads to two conflicts between the inspector and the members of the press at the border.
This document is only seen twice during the game: on day 17 from the seventh entrant and on day 20 from the sixth entrant, both being reporters who exclaim they have the right to enter Arstotzka.
The encounter on day 17 is a lose/lose scenario, the newspaper will comment about the Arstotzkan 'iron' border and entry bias, or how the border is 'frail'. In both outcomes, the bad international press leads to the introduction of the reason for denial stamp on the next day.
The encounter on day 20 has no particular consequences other than a citation should the journalist be approved without sufficient documents or the day being cut short should the inspector kill the journalist using the poison meant for Khaled Istom.
