Officials in Cuba maintain unchanged COVID-19-related travel restrictions as of Dec. 6.
Event
As of Dec. 6, authorities in Cuba continue to maintain COVID-19 travel and domestic restrictions.
Domestic Measures
Individuals must wear facemasks in indoor public spaces, as well as in public transport units. Local authorities can enforce tighter restrictions on business, public transport, and recreational and group activities based on local disease activity. Various nightly curfews may be in place depending on the province and/or municipality.
International Travel Restrictions
Fully vaccinated travelers can enter the island without a pre-travel COVID-19 test, as long as they can show proof of vaccination. Unvaccinated travelers aged 12 and older must continue to show proof of a negative PCR test result, taken within 72 hours prior to departure.
Previous requirements to test and quarantine upon arrival have been lifted; authorities continue to randomly select some travelers to perform health checks and COVID-19 tests. All passengers must pay a sanitary/health tax included in the flight ticket price.
Authorities could reimpose, extend, ease, or otherwise amend any restrictions with little-to-no notice depending on local disease activity over the coming weeks.
Advice
Follow all official instructions. Abide by national health and safety measures. Reconfirm all travel arrangements. Liaise with trusted contacts for further updates and guidance.
