Credencial in Lisbon

I went to the Cathedral in Lisbon this morning and they have run out of credencials. The priest said there are more coming but in three days' time. I start the Camino tomorrow (Monday). Does anyone know if I can get one anywhere else in Lisbon? If I cannot find one, can I collect stamps on a piece of paper?

Thank you. Lisa
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
From this website: http://www.vialusitana.org/caminho-santiago/credencial/

Pode obter-se a Credencial do Peregrino

You can obtain the Credential Pilgrim
In Lisbon:
Se Cathedral, every day from 9:30 to 18:30

Thank you very much! I got one at the Basilica!
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
For anyone else following, I was told the same thing in mid-June. The Cathedral had run out of credentials. I was directed to the Basilica. I did bring my own, however, I thought I'd get one from Lisbon if anything special. I decided to use the one I had brought and moved on. When returning back home through Lisbon weeks later, I checked with the Cathedral again. Same thing, they were out. A good conversation with the man at the desk. He said they could not keep up with demand and he has requested twice as many be ordered from now on.

More importantly right now, wishing each of you a wonderful walk. Lisbon to Santiago was quite special. Took the coastal route after arriving in Porto and the Spiritual Route later on down the path.

Keep a smile,
Simeon
