Cuba eVisa Requirements: Documents, Eligibility and What You Need to Apply

Cuba eVisa Requirements: Documents, Eligibility and What You Need to Apply

If you are searching for Cuba eVisa requirements because your trip is already planned, start with the passport you will actually carry. Cuba’s tourist visa route depends on nationality, purpose of travel and the document used at the border. The quickest way to avoid a wrong application is to check eligibility first, then complete the online form with the passport beside you.

Who should check the Cuba eVisa route?

Most foreign visitors travelling to Cuba for tourism need the applicable tourist visa or an exemption recognised by Cuban authorities. Cuba Travel describes the electronic tourist visa as the online route that replaces the traditional tourist card for many travellers. Nationality matters: residence, departure airport and the country where you paid do not replace the passport nationality.

Use our Cuba eVisa eligibility checker before entering personal information. If your passport is eligible and your trip is tourism, you can start the online application. Business, study, work, long stays and other purposes may require a different route through a Cuban consulate.

What information does the online application ask for?

The current evisacuba.com application is built around the traveller’s identity and contact details. Have these items ready:

• the nationality of the passport used for entry;
• the passport number;
• surname(s) and given name(s) exactly as shown on the passport;
• date of birth;
• an email address and the same address entered again for confirmation;
• sex as requested by the form; and
• a reachable phone number, if you want to provide one.

This application route does not ask you to upload a passport scan or photograph in the form currently published on this site. Do not invent a file-upload requirement from an older guide. Keep your passport available because every identity field must match the travel document that you will present.

Passport checks to complete before you pay

1. Use the passport that will be used for the flight and entry to Cuba.
2. Copy the passport number character by character; do not use a booking profile or memory.
3. Check the order of surnames and given names against the document.
4. Confirm the date of birth and nationality before the final review.
5. Make sure the email address is accessible throughout the trip.

A renewed passport means a new passport number. A dual national should choose one travel passport and keep the application, airline record and approval consistent. If a name contains several family names, keep the spelling used in the passport rather than shortening it to fit another website’s profile.

Requirements that are separate from the visa application

An eVisa is only one part of preparing for Cuba. Cuba Travel lists a valid passport, tourist visa, travel medical insurance, a return or onward ticket and the official digital entry declaration among the documents travellers may need. The D’Viajeros form is separate from the visa: it collects arrival, health and customs information and produces a QR code for the journey.

Complete the official D’Viajeros form on the MITRANS portal within the current window shown by that portal and your airline. Keep the QR code available offline. It is not a replacement for the visa, and the visa is not a replacement for the entry declaration.

How much is the online assistance?

The price displayed on evisacuba.com is US$59 per applicant. This is the price of our independent application assistance service, not a quoted Cuban government consular fee and not a promise of approval. The complete amount is shown again before payment. Government rules, exemptions and official charges can change, so check the selected nationality and purpose before submitting.

Ready to check your requirements?

Choose the passport nationality in the eligibility checker. If the route matches your trip, open the Cuba eVisa application form, enter the details exactly as printed and review the final page before payment. Cuban authorities control the visa decision and entry permission; our service helps you prepare and submit the information correctly.
