菲律宾(Philippines) 前往 古巴(Cuba) 签证要求

A Philippine ordinary passport holder needs a visa obtained in advance to visit Cuba. The Philippines is excluded from Cuba's online eVisa system, so Filipinos must apply for a consular tourist visa at a Cuban embassy/consulate. The only no-consulate shortcut is the 30-day tourist card, which Filipinos may use ONLY if they also hold a valid Canada, US, or EU visa or residence permit. Cuba phased out the paper "tourist card" and, from 1 January 2026, runs a digital eVisa as the standard tourist entry document for most nationalities. The Philippines, however, is on Cuba's restricted list of countries whose citizens cannot use the online eVisa and must instead obtain a consular visa with prior approval. This is why the conservative, accurate verdict for a Philippine ordinary passport is "visa-required" rather than "evisa," even though aggregator tables sometimes label Cuba generically as eVisa. Because the Cuban Embassy in Manila is closed/non-operational, Filipino applicants generally apply through the nearest Cuban diplomatic mission abroad or via an accredited consular agent. The Cuban tourist visa is single entry and allows a stay of up to 30 days, extendable once for another 30 days inside Cuba. A practical alternative recognized by Cuban policy: a Filipino who holds a valid visa or permanent residence permit from Canada, the United States, or an EU member state may instead travel on a tourist card (commonly issued by the airline/agent) for up to 30 days, bypassing the consular visa. All travelers, regardless of route, must also complete the mandatory D'Viajeros advance arrival form (within 7 days before arrival), hold valid medical/travel insurance with Cuba coverage, show a return/onward ticket, and demonstrate funds of roughly USD 50 per day. Always confirm current details with the Cuban mission handling Philippine applications before booking.
