You work in the travel industry and know that there are special reductions available from many industry suppliers, but:
- How do you prove your identity as a travel agent?
- How do you get to know who offers what?
- How do you gain access to these offers?
The answer is IATA / IATAN Travel Professional ID Card! It is the only industry credential recognised worldwide, serving the needs of both the travel agent community and suppliers.
The IATA/IATAN ID Card confirms the professional status of legitimate travel agents worldwide via strict eligibility criteria and verification procedures. It is a convenient and reliable tool for travel & tourism suppliers, supporting them in the management, distribution and control of their reduced rate offers for agents.
