Where and how can I get the Compostela?

To receive your Compostela, upon arrival in Santiago, you’ll need to visit the Oficina del Peregrino, situated at Calle Carretas, nº 33.

To obtain the Compostela, you must fulfill three requirements:

• Undertake the Camino de Santiago for religious or spiritual reasons, or at least with a sense of seeking.
• Complete the last 100 km of any of the routes on foot or on horseback, or the last 200 km by bicycle until reaching Santiago.
• Collect stamps along the way on your Pilgrim’s Credential. While stamps from churches, hostels, monasteries, cathedrals, and other Camino-related sites are preferred, stamps from accommodations, businesses, town halls, bars, etc., will also be accepted. Your Credential should be stamped at least twice daily.
