If you both wish to move to Spain then you (EU passport holder) will need to register (apply for residency). 

Once you have successfully applied then your husband (UK passport holder) can apply on the back of your application. You'll both need full health insurance, without co pay, for 12 months and be able to demonstrate that you have sufficient funds. I seem to remember this was around 600 euro per month. However, much less for the 2nd applicant when we got our residency.

Good luck

Hey thanks for that information, so I need health insurance before I come over and is that 600 a month that I can earn from work over there or have that total amount before I come over? And can I apply for residency before I come or do it there?
