Portuguese pilgrim passport - can I get in Santiago?

[calamity37]

Hi all!

I’m starting the Portuguese Coastal in reverse tomorrow. Do you know where I can get a passport in Santiago? Or is there something I can download? Thanks!

The Pilgrim Office has them. Avoid the three hour current wait by telling the guard what you want and following him to the front of the line. They are 2 Euro as I recall.

Be sure to check if you can get a Compestella where you end. I think that your Camino has to end at Santiago. If this is not true PLEASE let me know so that i don't disseminate incorrect information.

Thank you, I think you are correct but not sure as I didn’t want the Compostela when I finished the Frances

Starting in reverse from Santiago you can get your credential in Santiago (Ivar store on this forum) then Porto, Coimbra and Santarem @santaremhostel

Yes, you are correct. The Compostela is awarded because you have arrived at the tomb of St. James in Santiago. The OP has said this is not important, but for many others it is. So, good to clarify it!
