What can be sent to Cuba by postal mail?

In accordance with the regulations of the General Customs Office of the Republic of Cuba, for shipments via postal mail to the island, up to 10 kg of miscellaneous items may be sent to Cuba, for a maximum total value of USD 200.00 per shipment. It is recommended that senders include the official invoice for the items they are sending with their shipment.

Please note that Cuban Customs considers miscellaneous items to be sent by postal mail to the island: footwear, clothing, food, personal hygiene and household items, jewelry, perfumes, and lingerie.

Furthermore, all household appliances and other durable equipment, as well as their parts and components, and other similar items, are not classified as miscellaneous items in a postal shipment to the Island. Since they are not considered miscellaneous items, these items are valued individually by the General Customs of the Republic of Cuba. They are not weighed; only the customs value of each item contained in the postal shipment is considered, within the value limit of the shipment itself (maximum total value of USD 200.00).

  3. Hello, a question..

  4. If I wanted to receive cell phones by mail in my name, how many can I receive per year? Am I allowed to put two phones in a 2kg package?

  5. Good morning, I sent a tablet and a cell phone via DHL. Customs wants to confiscate one of the two items because it exceeds the established limit of 2. cuc When I have the invoice and the proof that I paid them with a total of 115 euros, what I don't understand is that they set the prices and if we consider them, they are not the real prices in the outside world. It is a low-end phone but it is touch-sensitive and a tablet for children are not from recognized brands. And in the end I paid for a service that they steal from me. Please can you tell me what to do. Greetings and good day
