Good to know
- Cuba's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MINREX) announced Evisa, an electronic tourist visa management platform, rolled out via Cuban consular offices abroad starting May 2024. Applicants can start the process virtually from any internet-connected device, without needing to submit additional physical documents.
- Cuba's Ministry of Tourism page with the fuller Evisa system description (mintur.gob.cu) was unreachable (502 Bad Gateway) during this check, via both automated and real-browser access — this record is sourced from the MINREX announcement instead.
- The practical application portal is evisacuba.cu, but its content did not load in this check (JavaScript-only page); this record could not confirm the eVisa fee, eligible nationalities, processing time or validity period from an official page — verify current details directly on evisacuba.cu or with a Cuban consulate before applying.
- Do not rely on third-party "Cuba tourist card" resellers for official pricing or eligibility — none were confirmed as an official Cuban government source during this check.
As a citizen of Dominican Republic you can travel to Cuba, but you'll need an entry document first — a visa on arrival, e-Visa or travel authorization depending on the route. Arrange it before you book non-refundable travel.
