Cuba, It costs 20 dollars, its about $14.600 Chilean peso. You
only can stay there for 30 days with this document.
Its necessary to give a real direction of accommodation,
either a house or a hotel.

Suggestions:
You have to take care with the money exchange, because the
change into American dollars have an extra tax of about 10%.
Credit card are accepted, Visa and Master Card are the more usual
to use.
The clothes you have to wear when you visit this country must be
light, like cotton clothes, shorts and sandals. In winter, a less
intense summer, you might prefer to wear sweater and
comfortable shoes.
Dont forget to carry your sunglasses, bathing suit and sunscreen,
Cuba has an eternal summer, remember The weather is Semi
tropic.
In some places like theater, restaurants or cinema its not allowed
to enter with shorts and sleeveless shirts, you must wear formal
clothes.
The main transport there is taxis, buses or tricycles called
Cocotaxis they are cheap. If you want to go to the different
islands there, you must take a flight, because you cant get there
on land. Also you can use ferries or boats.

A very important tip when you look for accommodation is

considered that there are many people in Cuba who rent their
houses for tourists, the government authorized these homes and
you can contact directly with the owners, this way, you can save a
lot of money.
But if we talk about the documents you need, its necessary a
medical insurance to get in to the country, if you dont have it,
they force you to buy a policy with ASISTUR, a state company.
