Hi my credentials from SJdPP is almost full. Will not be able to fit stamps for StC-Finisterre-Muxía-StC in there. Is there a place herr in StC to buy a new one?

Hola if you go to the Tourist Office at number 62 Rua do vilar in the same street as the tourist office they will give you a credencial for this route. Otherwise you can buy one at the first albergue in Negreira.

Buen camino

Likewise my credential was full when I reached Santiago after walking the Frances, so I got another credential from the Pilgrims Office for my Portuguese Camino at the same time as getting my compostela for the Frances. As John says you can also get one from the tourist office who also have lots of info on the Camino Finisterre.

Yesterday I was sent around. I got my Compostela. I went to the tourist office and got some info about the Camino finesterre but forgot to ask about credential. Went back to the pilgrim's office and asked a woman downstairs if I could buy a new credential here as mine was full and I was going to Finisterre. She said yes. Go upstairs.

Stood in line again and when it was my turn they said no. That is another organisation and we don't have their credentials. I was sent back to the Galician tourist office where I got one for free. A ugly one with advertise for an albergue on front page. All squares for stamps are really small and this far all stamps have covered 2 squares. I can't really understand what to fill in on the first page either more than a check in the on foot checkbox. Should it be filled in in advance or after I have finished? Someone with better Spanish than me might be able to help.

Question...
If one knows they are going to Finisterre can you not ask for the passport for this at the beginning or get an extra one ahead of time so as to not have to deal with the runaround?

 

[BeatriceKarjalainen]

Well if I had checked my first passport before going to the tourist office I would have seen that I didn't have any space left. Then I could have asked for one the first time I was there. I think they should ask people who comes in for a map/albergue list if they need a passport as well.

The image is too small to read easily Beatrice so I am making a guess here.
I think it might want your name and your Passport (ID) number, like our CSJ credenciales and the Cathedral ones do. It often means that you will not also be asked for your Passport as well as your Pilgrim Passport when you stop for the night, they will take your details from the pilgrim one.
