Can i go to cuba after ive been in the states?

Question

im an irish citizen with an invitation to go to new york.

a friend once told me if i've been to america i wont be allowed into cuba after. is this correct?

Answer 1

No, that is not true.  You are not an american citizen, and you are not traveling from america to cuba.  Those would be the only reasons you couldn't go to Cuba.

Answer 2

No, you can go into Cuba after visiting the US. You're not an American citizen, therefore, you can travel to Cuba without difficulty. I myself am not a US citizen, and I've travelled to the States many times and have had no problem going to Cuba anytime after.

The only thing is that you won't really be able to fly into Cuba from the US. If you're thinking to go to Cuba while you're visiting in the US, it's better that you go to Canada or Mexico and fly from there (depending which country is closest to you while in the US).

Other than that, go and enjoy your travels anywhere.

Answer 3

There will be no problem with you going to Cuba.  The Cubans don't care if you have been to the US.  The US does not want you to go to Cuba and it is difficult to go there from the US (though not impossible).  Also Cubans welcome the many Americans who visit Cuba each year - Americans go to Cuba through another country - the Bahamas, Canada, etc. and come back to the US via the same route.  Cuban officials will not stamp your passport because they know that may make trouble for you if you want to enter the US later - they will issue you with a visa which you carry while you are there.

Answer 4

no it is not correct you can go to Cuba after you have been in the U.S.  Americans are not allowed by the U. S. government to legally go to Cuba.  By the way contrary to one poster, Cubans do not hate Americans, the Cuban government and the U. S. government don't get along but that has  nothing to do with  the Cuban people.

Answer 5

Thats sort of true. You can not get to Cuba in any form of  public transportation(planes, boats, etc.) from America. You would have to fly to another country and then take a flight from that country into Cuba. You can still go to Cuba if youve been to america, theres just no direct way. Thats because America has had serious problems with cuba in the past

Answer 6

cuba hates most/all americans so i think not and why would you want to go there

Answer 7

Most Cubans love Americans, and the Cuban government loves visitors from wherever.

The US restricts who can travel directly from the US to Cuba, but anyone can go via Mexico, or Jamaica etc

PS I am in Miami today - tomorrow I fly to Havana.

Answer 8

if you are a Canadian, American, and a citizen in the Caribbean you cant travel anywhere in those countrys otherwise no unless visa or something

Answer 9

You can go to cuba if you have visited US but you cannot fly directley into the country from america because of the disputes between the two goverments so you will have to fly indirectly from another country e.g mexico or canada. good luck and happy hols.
