Cuba

Who needs a visa for Cuba?

Of 198 nationalities, 21 enter Cuba with no paperwork at all. The rest: 175 must be approved before they travel and 2 cannot travel there.

We have not found a Cuba government portal we can link to with confidence, so we link to none โ€” a lookalike is worse than nothing. Apply through Cuba's own immigration service or its embassy.

What do you need?

Who needs what

Visa free 21

Nothing to apply for and nothing to pay before you travel.

eVisa (electronic visa) 155

A real visa application, made online instead of at an embassy. It is assessed, it takes days rather than minutes, and it can be refused.

Visa required 20

You must apply and be approved before you travel. Airlines will refuse to board you without it.

No admission 2

A government policy, not a paperwork problem. No agent or service can work around it.
