Republic of Cuba
IMPORTANT NOTE: Effective February 21, 2026, tourist accommodation will be restricted solely to the resort areas of Varadero and Havana. In the rest of the island, a phased closure of hotel facilities is currently underway.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Republic of Cuba is currently facing critical situation caused by fuel shortages. This might lead to frequent and prolonged power and water supplies disruptions (in some areas electricity blackout can last about 24 hours per day) as well as disturbances in various other sectors, such as air traffic, communications etc. Visitors, tourists in particular, are advised to be in constant contact with their travel agencies and regularly require from them information on the availability of critical services (electricity, water, transport) and possible logistical changes. (updated on 20.02.2025)
IMPORTANT NOTE: As logistical difficulties and restrictions in the transport system operations are possible, including due to fuel supplies shortages, it is advisable that pre-arranged transfers, accommodation and transport be organized for your trip in Cuba. Aviation fuel supplies might face difficulties and as a result, air transport services might also be affected. Travelers are advised to check regularly their flights’ status directly with the airline before departure and during their stay. There might be limited availability of food, water, medicines and fuel on site. (updated on 20.02.2025)
