I walked part of the Camino in 2005 and plan on returning to finsih next month.
I still have my old credential from 2005. You guys think I can still use it or will I need
to get a new one ?
 
A guide to speaking Spanish on the Camino - enrich your pilgrim experience.
You can certainly still use it - many people take some years to complete their chosen route and get sellos on the same pilgrim passport each time they walk a section. To obtain the Compostela from the Pilgrims' Office in Santiago they will be looking specifically for sellos from the last 100 kilometeres travelled into Santiago.

If you run out of space with the credencial you already have either just get a new one or add on pages of your own making which I have done in the past.

Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

Of course you can continue using the same credential.

It will be great for you to see the new stamps beside the old ones.

Buen Camino,
