Cuba visa for Mexican citizens

Mexican passport details: nombres and apellidos

Open the identity page while completing the form. Copy the passport number from the travel document and keep its letters and digits together. The application does not request a CURP, an INE credential or a Mexican tax identifier.

Use the passport’s division between surnames and given names, including a compound surname when it appears there. Compare the completed form with the passport before continuing rather than relying on how your airline account abbreviates the name.

Buying a flight and arranging the visa are separate

For an independently booked journey, check the ticket conditions for any visa service. If a travel agency is organizing the documents, ask when and how the issued visa code will arrive. Avoid purchasing a second service until you know what has already been supplied.

If your itinerary includes a connection outside Mexico, check that country’s transit conditions. A Cuba eVisa only addresses the Cuban visa route; it does not serve as entry permission for a connecting country.

Keep a useful travel folder before leaving Mexico

Use one accessible email account for the application confirmation and double-check the repeat-email field. Save the code and arrival QR with your passport details, accommodation information and return booking so the trip does not depend on airport internet.

The Mexican Embassy in Cuba publishes assistance information for Mexican nationals. Bookmark its official page before travelling, and use the Cuban authorities for visa decisions or changes to your permitted stay.

Example: two surnames and a booking that shows only one

Suppose a Mexican passport prints two surname components but an airline reservation displays only the first. Enter the passport's complete surname field in the visa application and put the given names in their own box. Then ask the airline whether the reservation requires correction. Removing a surname from the visa to resemble a shortened ticket display can create another mismatch instead of resolving the first one.

The passport number field is equally specific. Read it from the travel document, not from an identity-card number, a CURP record or a previous booking. Compare the final confirmation with the passport while both are in front of you; memory is a poor reference for a long document number.

A short trip from Mexico still needs a document sequence

For a weekend journey, work backwards from the first flight rather than from the number of nights in Cuba. Establish whether the carrier or agency supplies a visa, arrange any missing application, and then complete the separate arrival formalities in the official portal's permitted window. The application receipt and the final arrival QR serve different purposes, so save both under clear filenames.

If your itinerary includes a return through another country, check that country's requirements for the Mexican passport as a separate step. The price here covers our Cuban application service; it does not include permission to enter a connection country or insurance purchased for the journey.

What to prepare for the online application

Use the Mexican passport intended for this journey. The current form asks for the following details:

• Passport nationality and passport number.
• Surnames and given names as printed in the passport.
• Date of birth and sex.
• Email address, entered twice to confirm it.
• Phone number, if you choose to provide one.

No passport scan or portrait upload is requested in the current service form. Insurance, return or onward travel and the arrival declaration are separate travel preparations; they are not upload fields in this application.

Cuba eVisa cost and application steps

Our online application service costs US$59 per traveller. This is our independent service price, not a quoted government consular fee. Read the service terms and refund policy before paying. You can also consult the official government application directly.

1. Enter your passport details. The application opens with Mexico selected. Review names, passport number, birth date and email.
2. Review the application and service price. Confirm the information and displayed total before continuing to the payment stage.
3. Monitor the application. Keep your reference and use the application status page for an existing request. Allow time before departure; no approval deadline is guaranteed.
4. Prepare the separate arrival declaration. After receiving the issued visa code, follow the official D’Viajeros portal instructions and save the arrival QR.

The tourist route is generally for one entry and an initial stay of up to 90 days, subject to the issued visa and current Cuban rules. Work, study and special passport circumstances need their own advice. Cuban authorities decide approval and admission.
