How to get a Pilgrim Passport

[NANINACAMINO]

Hi everyone,

will be doing the walk in September but would like to get the pilgrim passport in advance. I live in Canada. Can anyone advise me as to how to go about it?

GRACIAS,

Hi and welcome!

Go here to get your credential from the Canadian Company of Pilgrims:

I have used the credential from this site and it has a lot of space for cellos! It is also bright lime-greem and very hard to misplace in your pack!

Best,

lynne (from Ontario)

Hello - the Credencial is the same as the Pilgrims Passport. It is available from the site which Lynn gave you and also from many churches and albergues along the way. Where are you starting?

Credenciales or Pilgrims Passport or Pilgrims Records are all the same thing - those issued by the Cathedral in Santiago are the ones available along the way and cost .50 centimes (.5 €)
