Travel Info What are the risks of visiting Cuba as a tourist (all inclusive resort) and also, what is the chance of being denied immigration in Cuba? Any tips of information, my friend is wondering. Travel Tips The question isn't entirely clear. Personal safety risks are insignificant as Cuba is one of the safest countries in the region. Risks associated to the U.S. legislation on Cuba (assuming you are a citizen or a legal permanent resident) would apply only insofar as you are caught violating the Helms-Burton Act, which doesn't explicitly prohibit travel to Cuba, but prohibits any commercial transactions (including basic purchases while in Cuba) without the expressed consent by the OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) in Miami. The chance of being denied entry into Cuba by Cuban authorities are nil, provided that you have a valid travel document, that you fill out a tourist card, and that you don't carry prescribed substances or pose a threat to Cuban security. Others the risk are you can be fined 25.000 dollars and a year in jail and loss of your passport, the chances being denied are ultra slim. i spent 8 days there , dont use a credit card brings lots of new bills small notes, dont buy cigars off the street they are duds only frrom the factory outlet direct Cuba is absolutely beautiful and one day it will be open to US residents. Wait a while before heading there illegally. Castro will be displaced soon and I believe that the US rules will change soon after. So don't risk a $25,000 fine maybe jail time too. - just wait a while. Cheers |
