Step by step
How Antiguan citizens enter Cuba
Check your passport is valid for the whole trip. Many countries also want it valid for a period beyond your departure date, so confirm the exact rule on the official page below.
Plan a trip of 30 days or fewer. Beyond that, Cuba needs a different permission and this page does not cover it.
Carry proof of onward or return travel and of where you are staying. Border officers ask for both, and an airline can refuse boarding without them.
Check the requirement again close to your departure date. This route was last checked on 19 April 2026, and rules change without notice.

Reconsider Travel
UK FCDO: The FCDO advises against all but essential travel to the whole of Cuba due to shortages of fuel, food, and medicine, repeated power grid failures, and related disruption to transport, medical care, and communications. International card payments have been banned since 6 June, so visitors need to carry enough cash for their whole stay. Some international airlines have suspended flights, which may limit departure options.
