Can a US citizen go to Cuba on a US passport? |
Travel Info Is it legal to travel through Canada to get there, or is that asking for trouble? My Canadian niece is getting married in Cuba, but I do not know if, or how, we can attend from the States. Travel Tips Officially, certain people may be licensed to travel to Cuba. The actual law has to do that since there is a "trade embargo", we can not go as tourists and spend American $$$ there. The Office of Foreign Assets Control states journalists, official government business travelers, members of international organizations, academic professionals, and the like, can get these licenses. I had the chance to go with my school on a study abroad trip, which I had assumed to be legal cause it was academic in nature. So the answer is yes but read this first "The Regulations require that persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction be licensed to engage in any travel-related transactions related to travel to, from, and within Cuba. Transactions related to tourist travel are not licensable. This restriction includes tourist travel to Cuba from or through a third country such as Mexico or Canada. U.S. law enforcement authorities have increased enforcement of these regulations at U.S. airports and pre-clearance facilities in third countries. Travelers who fail to comply with Department of Treasury regulations will face civil penalties and criminal prosecution upon return to the United States."

You need to fly from Canada or Mexico into Cuba and out of into either one again. No. Americans are not allowed in Cuba, because America does not allow it. yea THEY CAN OFFICIALLY GO. i dont know if cuba has imposed any travel restrictions on Americans be sure to check and contact the US Embassy Dept of State for more info http://travel.state.gov/travel Americans traveling to Cuba Info http://havana.usinterestsection.gov/acs.... I know of many people who travel to Cuba through Mexico or Canada,the US government doesn't really like it,but I've never heard of a problem! |
