They are wanting to see a letter from the employer you are working for. This is typically a publisher who has contracted you to provide the pix.

Your letter of assignment is a letter provided by the editor/publisher who is paying you to take the photos.

In other words, are you going to take photos for your local paper, a magazine, a website, etc? Whoever you are taking the images for, is who needs to provide a letter stating your assignment for them.

If you aren't shooting an assignment and are shooting on spec or for yourself, you can request credentials, but depending on the event/volume you'll probably be denied. Credentials are typically handed out to members of the press or freelancers who are shooting on assignment for a publisher or source.

That form includes a section for details of the outlet (and the primary contact there). That is the news outlet you are shooting for and they will be the ones to provide the letter.

Hello from Germany,
I need a letter of assignment to join Copenhagen Fashionweek.
To keep things easy and fast the employer has asked me to write it down and handle it over to have it signed and printed on their letter head. Could you help me out?

Many thanks and best regards,
Christina
