We plan to walk the Francigena in autumn 2018, but will be in Rome in January. Is there anywhere we can obtain the credential in Rome? Thanks for your time and information!

I wonder if @ivar could arrange to sell the Via Francigena credentialed in the Casa Iva store??

There does seem to be a lot of interest.
I know I had a lot of confusion and difficulty in obtaining them last year.
I would sure have welcomed an easier source.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

We got ours a few weeks ago from the London Confraternity. We also got patches.

that is very useful, thank you, galloglaigh.

still, it doesn't answer the question whether any credencial (including home-made) is valid.

The advice I've has second-hand is that the Pilgrim office doesn't really know how to treat those that arrive by foot. So I doubt there will be any known official view.

The overwhelming majority arrive in Rome by air/rail/car, so walking pilgrims are a bit of an oddity. We have to be odd to walk 2000 km, but there is a number above for you to call if you are unsure.
