At your arrival to the country you must have on your passport a six months left before expiration and your visa or permission of entrance. The visa can be valid by a term of 30 days, later if you want to extend your stay can go to the Immigration office before the finish of the visa in order to ask for the extension or prorogation of your visa. For US Visa permission, see the below link.

U.S. citizens and residents are not allowed to travel to Cuba, except for special circumstances. You need permission and a license from the Dept. of the State. Some tour operators get global licenses and bring groups to the island, but everytime is more and more difficult. Here you have a link to the US Dep. of State where they talk about Cuba. If you decide to go to Cuba on your own, through a third country, you won't have any trouble entering Cuba, but you are going to get heavily fined when you come back to the USA ( and if you are not a citizen, just a resident, you could face even more serious consequences).

You can't legally go there but you can illegally go there. I went the summer before last and I had to fly from a different contry (im a US citizen). there is the embargo with cuba and all US citizens are banned from going there. I would suggest flying from cancun mexico or canada. You cant use your credit cards in cuba (because govt. tracks your spending like that) so you have to plan ahead. I flew out of costa rica and I was required to buy a seperate visa for $100 dollars that was a seperate paper that got stamped on the way into cuba and on the way out and then you throw away or hide. If customs in US finds it your screwed and the govt. will take you to court. cuba cutoms knows your situation so they try to help you out for the most part. Visiting Cuba is definately worth the risk though because it is the coolest place I've ever been (and Ive been all over the damn world). I bought my airline ticket through a cuban airline for pretty cheap and they hooked me up with the VISA through a student travel organization. I have lots more info if you want.

Contact the US Treasury Office of Foreign Assets and Control they issue the letters to visit Cuba. You can go to their web site and get all the information regarding what to do. It does take time, so don't be in too big of a hurry.

From what I know, it is illegal for US citizens/residents to travel to Cuba, except in special situations.
