Travel Documents Needed
When travelling outside of your home country you should always have a valid passport.
Valid passport for the duration of the stay in Cuba plus one day after return date and a tourist card are required for vacationers. Passport holders from other countries with no embassies in Havana, should travel with a passport that has to be valid up to two months after the return date.
Always check with your travel agent regarding current entry requirements.
Driving is on the right-hand side of the road; speed limits are normally posted and generally respected. Taxis are available in busy commercial and tourist areas; radio-dispatched taxis are generally clean and reliable.
Although the main arteries of Havana are generally well maintained, secondary streets often are not. Many roads and city streets are unlit, making night driving dangerous, especially as some cars and most bicycles lack running lights or reflectors. Street signage tends to be insufficient and confusing.
The principal Cuban east-west highways are in good condition but lack lights. Night driving should be strictly avoided outside urban areas. Secondary rural roads are narrow, and some are in such bad condition as to be impassable by cars. Due to the rarity of cars on rural roads, pedestrians, bicycles, and farm equipment operators wander onto the roads without any regard to possible automobile traffic. Unfenced livestock constitute another serious road hazard.
