Residency
Orientation only. Residency is determined by the Cuban authorities, and requirements vary substantially by category and nationality.
This is not immigration advice
CubaAtlas does not assess eligibility, prepare applications, or represent anyone before any authority. Confirm everything with the competent authority or a Cuban consulate.
Verified office-level information is not currently available through the official source.
Residency is decided by the immigration authority, and no office-level detail can be verified while its site is down. If you are outside Cuba, your Cuban consulate is the reachable official route.
