The PR One Prizes (PROP) competition has three stages of entry, with an additional student award. We encourage participants to prepare their entries early to allow ample time to refine their project descriptions. The main organization offers a highly competitive entry fee that covers all processes with no additional charges. If your winning prize includes a trophy, medal, or certificate, these are also included in the entry fee. (If you live outside the delivery range of major courier companies, additional shipping fees may apply, but this is uncommon.)
For participants with special circumstances requiring expedited judging results, we offer an “Express Registration” service. The judging team will complete the judging within two weeks and notify participants of the results.
Competition judging time
The judging process takes approximately 60-75 days. After participants complete registration, payment, and submission of complete materials, these materials will enter the judging panel’s scoring process. Under normal circumstances, the results will be announced after 60-75 days. However, some entries may be announced earlier or later due to special circumstances. Therefore, the actual announcement will be subject to the judges’ decision to maintain the fairness of the competition.
Publication deadline for submitted works
Entries must be made within the past 3 years (created or produced after May 1, 2023)
Participants must not violate the laws of the United States or the countries/regions where they or their clients reside. Furthermore, if a project involves sensitive topics or violates ethical standards, we may disqualify the participant without prior notice or refund.

- Payment in US dollars. Accepts payment via credit card or Paypal.
- The above fees include VAT and the full award competition fee. If the award includes a trophy, medal, or certificate, we will not charge for the production of the trophy. The above fees include international shipping. However, you must live in an area supported by major international shipping companies such as DHL, UPS, FEDEX, TNT Express, Royal Mail, USPS, SF Express, EMS, Nippon Express, and Japan Post. If you live outside of the normal service areas of these logistics services, we are unable to ship physical trophies or certificates.

- Winners in the “Student One Prizes” category will receive a gold or silver winner award. These honorary awards include a digital certificate and a badge. However, winners in this category do not receive a trophy, interview, or press release. However, even if you are a student, you can still enter the general competition category and strive to win a gold or silver PROP award.
