From June 21, Cuba will stop the circulation of cash. What currency should I use?
Due to the tightening of US sanctions, the Cuban authorities announced a temporary ban on cash transactions. Since June 21, they are not accepted for payment and exchange for Cuban pesos.
Tourists planning a trip to the island are advised to take any other currency as cash, except for the US.
We are talking about cash: with payment cards problems will not arise.
Advisor to the Ministry of Tourism of Cuba at the Embassy of Cuba in Russia Juan Carlos Escalona said that it is better to bring cash euros. They may be needed when buying excursions and fuel at the gas station when renting a car.
Services in hotels, including Internet access, as well as purchases in shopping centers in resorts can be paid by international bank cards (except for the Russian card “Mir”).
Excursions to Havana due to the situation with COVID-19 for foreign tourists are not yet allowed, and in the Cuban capital from 21 hours to 5 a.m. there is a curfew.
Russians have direct flights to the resorts of Varadero and Cayo Coco.
