Thanks for this! Only question, I have a little CPAP machine which is called an Air Mini (smaller travel version). It's worth approximately 1500 USD. Would I need to declare this? Maybe under this category: List of equipment and items (appliances and others) that you bring, which do not classify as miscellaneous ? But when you drop this menu down, there's nothing that says "medical device" or anything like that. So I'm not sure if I should choose "miscellaneous"? Then if I choose this, I'll have to declare the value, weight in KG etc... I'm also wondering if it's better for me to put it in stowed luggage, or bring it in a small carry on bag. It's really small, like size of a pencil case. The hose and mask take up more room than the mask. Thanks!
since you aren't leaving it in Cuba you don't need to declare it. They may want to know what it is but you shouldn't have any trouble. Put it in your hand luggage, in case your checked luggage gets lost.
You could get through your whole trip without ever exchanging money to Cuban pesos, just using USD. When you get change, for example at a restaurant, it will usually be in Cuban pesos and that way you can accumulate a few for small purchases or for giving tips. If you want to exchange money to Cuban pesos, do it at the black market rate. If you're staying in a casa, you can ask your staff or if you have a guide, ask your guide for recommendations. If you change at the official rate, your money is going to lose a lot of value.
Most people need to get a tourist card, there are just a few countries that don't need one. If you are from the Americas, most of Europe, or Oceana you will
You say to select Tourism for purpose even for US travelers, but wouldn't visit be safer? Tourism is not technically allowed, should the US ever see these forms.
The US won't see the forms, they belong to the Cuban government and if you select something other than tourism, you risk different scrutiny by the Cuban government
Helpful. Thank you. Cuba, here I come!

Should I change USA$ for the Cuban CUP at the airport? Or can I buy food, souvenirs and tours with US dollars?

Do i need to buy a visa card or this is it
Most people need to get a tourist card, there are just a few countries that don't need one. If you are from the Americas, most of Europe, or Oceana you will
Do i need a Cuban visa as well or is this enough to get in
You need to have a visa/tourist card, these are your immigration forms
I can't fill out the institution #, but it is required.
Its not required, and if it is, you may have selected an incorrect option earlier in the process
If I bring my laptop, do I need to declare it at customs?
Nope, personal use items do not need to be declared
The website isn't working.... What happens now, I'm currently at the airport?
Same 😢...did you get any help?
@@BestNdWorld no not at all. Google is no help either.
@@amanda_lanni2424 Hope it worked out for you! Let us know what happened.
@@ga20904 This is just to arrive to Cuba. It is checked by the airline before you board and again in immigration once you arrive in Cuba.
I’m traveling from the USA I thought I couldn’t put in tourism as a reason for travel
Where is the FORM
The link to the form is in the video caption. Its the D'Viajeros website
