English translation:press pass
Explanation:
Technically, it would be "trade press pass" or "press pass for trade journalists" or something like that, but I don't think you would actually say that in English. Press pass will do just fine. (Germans love to use the prefix "Fach-" to signal that something is serious business. :) )
