Trade overview
Cuba is a Caribbean island nation subject to a longstanding US trade embargo, which significantly restricts bilateral trade and financial transactions. Limited categories of US exports to Cuba are permitted under specific licenses, including certain food, agricultural products, and humanitarian goods. Trade professionals must navigate the Cuban Assets Control Regulations (CACR) administered by OFAC and the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) before engaging in any transactions involving Cuba.
