As La Zenia comes under Orihuela, I don't know whether you have to go to the INSS in Torrevieja to register your S1, but hopefully a member in that area will be able to advise.

You need to take your S1 to the local INSS to get it checked out for being correct. You will then be given additional paperwork to take to your local clinic who will issue you with a SIP card and assign a doctor.

Just be aware that you can't just turn up at an INSS office to get the paperwork you need, an appointment is required. Hope fully this might save you a wasted journey!

Kind regards, Steve
