Do Bahamian citizens need a visa for Cuba?

Electronic travel authorisation (eTA)

Bahamian passport holders need an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) before travelling to Cuba. It is a short online application, not a full visa.

Heads-up: some sources list this route as eVisa (90 days).

What this means for your trip

Apply only on the official government site; third-party sites charge extra.
Apply a few days before travel; most approvals are quick but some take longer.
The authorisation is linked to your passport. A new passport needs a new application.
