The Credential or the Pilgrim Passport

What it is
The Pilgrim's Credential is a "passport" that the pilgrim fills in during his or her journey, as proof and memory of the journey he or she has made. Presenting it in the most significant stages of the journey, it is possible to receive a stamp, until the completion of the journey.
Since November 2012 it is included in the Pilgrim's Kit (see details in the related sheet below).
Who is issuing it
This credential or passport is issued to the pilgrim directly by the Association to which the pilgrim has turned for their pilgrimage, among which:
> Associazione Europea delle vie Francigene www.viefrancigene.org/it/testimonium
