Legal Travel To cuba

Recently, there has been a lot of coverage in the travel industry press about developments in travel to Cuba. With this in mind, please be aware of the following: • The U.S. Department of the Treasury has a list of Travel Service Providers to Cuba (TSP).
• A TSP is licensed by the Treasury to legally arrange travel services in Cuba for Americans, to collect money from those travelers, and to distribute money to Cuban suppliers.
• Only those travel agencies and tour operators listed as TSPs are legally allowed to provide these services.
• Any unlicensed travel agent or tour operator that promotes Cuba travel services, makes travel arrangements, or collects funds for travel to Cuba from Americans is in violation of Federal law and is subject to civil and/or criminal penalties.
• Unlicensed travel agents and tour operators are not allowed to earn commissions on bookings to Cuba.
• Ya’lla Tours USA has been licensed as a TSP to provide legal travel services to Cuba since the summer of 2002.

This is not legal advice.
