How do I get a Spanish health card
Hi everyone,
I moved to Catalonia in November 2021.
Now living in Begur.
Unfortunately I don’t speak Spanish and am struggling to get a Spanish health card.
I have an NIE, am on the pardon at the local commune and in receipt of a uk state pension.
I am awaiting an S1 certificate from the uk but have received conflicting information about what else I need to provide to get a Spanish health card.
A local accountant tells me I have to be a resident for a minimum of 2 years before I am eligible, and a lawyer tells me I have to become a fiscal resident and pay Spanish taxes before being eligible.
Can anyone shine a light on any of this and provide some guidance, or know someone I could contact who can solve this problem?
