You need to have been officially resident in Spain for a minimum of 12 months. You need to submit an application together with a copy of the padron (also see below). Present everything in an unsealed envelope at a post office who will stamp the application, seal the envelope and provide you with a certificate of posting. You will be contacted by post with a date and time to attend an office in Alicante where you will sign the agreement and be issued with a SIP card there and then. You will have to meet the full cost of prescriptions.The following link will provide all the details and an application that you can download:

You will also be required to provide a letter from the NHS Business Services Authority in the UK or other country if not British, that they are not responsible for your healthcare. Contact details is:

Hi Also you pay monthly If you are under 65 I think the monthly fee is around €60 and for over 65s the cost rises to around €157 per month until you are 66. These are prices quoted a few years ago so obviously they will be more expensive now.
