Poland to Cuba visa requirements

Polish passport holders need a Cuba e-Visa before flying. It replaced the paper tourist card and is required for nearly all air travelers. It is a single-entry permit for stays up to 90 days. Mandatory medical travel insurance with Caribbean/Latin America coverage is also required. A Poland ordinary passport holder traveling to Cuba for tourism needs an electronic visa (e-Visa). Cuba introduced its electronic visa system via the official eVisaCuba portal and made it mandatory for air travelers, retiring the long-standing paper tourist card (tarjeta del turista) at the end of 2025. The e-Visa is a single-entry authorization permitting a stay of up to 90 days, which can be extended once for a further 90 days at a Cuban immigration office locally. For EU citizens including Poles the government fee is low (around EUR 22, though the figure varies by issuing consulate, broadly within a USD 25-100 range), and processing is typically completed within about 72 hours of confirmed payment. Applicants need a passport valid for the stay (the Polish MFA cites a minimum of three months, though six months is widely recommended), a recent photo, proof of return/onward travel, and accommodation details. Cuba legally requires all visitors to hold valid medical travel insurance for the duration of the stay, and the insurer should have representation in Latin America/the Caribbean; proof may be checked on arrival. Separately, every traveler must complete the free D'Viajeros online declaration (health, customs, immigration) within the 7 days (and at least 72 hours) before arrival to obtain a QR code needed for boarding and entry. Cuba is not in the Schengen area, so Schengen 90/180 and ETIAS rules do not apply.
