Rules in force · 6Casa particulares expect a set arrival time
  • Cuba ↗Check entry rules for your passport with the Cuban embassy or official sources; most visitors need a tourist card and an online pre-arrival form, and requirements change.
  • Cuba ↗US citizens and residents face US legal restrictions on travel to Cuba: check the US government rules before booking, not just Cuban entry rules.
  • Cuba ↗Carry proof of travel insurance with medical cover; you may be asked for it on arrival.
  • Havana area ↗Keep one slack day in each week for fuel shortages, cancelled buses and power cuts.
  • Havana ↗Casa particulares expect a set arrival time: send your flight number and the time you expect to reach the door before you fly.
  • Havana ↗Bring cash for the whole stay before you fly: cards often fail, and ATM cash is not reliable.
