In 2024 I noticed that the design for the official Cathedral credentials had changed. Credentials I obtained from the Cathedral in Donastia in August 2024, as well as from the Pilgrim's office in Santiago in September and October no longer included a map on the backside. Instead, the back included additional panels for sellos.
I figured "ah hah!" they are serious about the 2 stamps everyday requirement, and now the credential would support that requirement.
When I completed my last camino in November, as is my habit, I picked up a couple of fresh credentials from the Pilgrim's Office so I would be ready for my next trip.
In light of the recent news about new rules for receiving a Compostela, I was curious and this morning I took a look at the credentials I obtained in November... They are the "old design" with the map on the back!
I think they were trying to get rid of old inventory or something in preparation for the recent announcement.
I really liked the new design, as the new credential could fully support my gradually formed sello hoarding habit.
Do the credentials that @ivar is offering from this site have the empty panels on the back? If so I'll order some now.
