4. Does CADECA sell me the currency that I need?

CADECA will be able to satisfy the client's need, as long as it has availability in that currency. The sales operations of MLC to clients depend on the currencies that we buy in the Exchange Market itself, with which if EURO enters, we sell EURO. If dollars come in, we sell dollars. And so with all the currencies that CADECA quotes. Remember that in Cuba foreign currency bills are not issued, nor are we able to import bills to supply the monetary cone, since that operation would compete with the country's need for foreign currency for its normal development. The design of the foreign exchange market is clear and simple. All the currencies that someone wants to sell us are bought in the network of offices and the amount and bills of the currencies purchased in cash are sold in the selected offices in this market.

5. Do all CADECAs offer this service?

Answer: At the moment, foreign currency is sold in the 37 CADECA offices selected and authorized. On the Isle of Youth, it is a Branch of the BPA that executes this service.

7. How can I know the number of people who are going to attend on the day?

Answer: Given that upon arrival in Cuba, the collection of customs duties is carried out in CADECA offices in the customs halls themselves, our cashiers can receive any currency, including the US dollar, converting it into the payment currency of tariffs and completes the collection service. With this, if you arrive with dollars, CADECA accepts them, to complete the collection of customs duties.
