I am hoping to begin walking shortly after arriving in St. Jean and was considering obtaining my passport before traveling. Is there any advantage to waiting to obtain the passport in the office in St. Jean, or does it matter?

What time are you arriving in St Jean? The pilgrim's office opens early and both times I obtained my passport there, there was no line or waiting. Also you can get a passport at the tourism office there, or you can get one from this forum.

Or you can also get one from a Camino group such as the Canadian Company of Pilgrims (that's where my wife and I got ours) or the equivalent one in your country.

You can obtain the credential at the Pilgrim Office in SJPP or any number of places, including here on this forum.
When do you begin walking?

I order mine here on the forum or from the American Friends here:http://www.americanpilgrims.com/camino/credential_req.html
Last time through SJPP was Easter-time and the office there provided hundreds of pilgrims with their credential and none were left! Better in any case to have one before arriving and have them stamp it there.

Thanks to all replies. I am leaving on September 1 and would like very much to purchase one through this forum. Is there a link I am missing? Thank you again.

Hi Suzanne, you can get it at the pilgrims office / at this forum and in your own country by a organisation of St.James.
