## Before you go to Cuba

To enter Cuba there are 9 things to sort out before you leave, starting with “Passport valid for six months”: they are all, with their deadlines, in [the Cuba checklist](https://kokai.app/en/paises/america/cuba/#antes-de-salir). Currency: Cuban peso (CUP); in practice you get by with euros or dollars in cash; plugs: Type A, B, C and F · 110 V and 220 V · 60 Hz (you need an adapter and should check the voltage); emergencies: 106 police · 104 ambulance · 105 fire brigade.

In [Kokai](https://kokai.app/en/) you tick off the checklist inside your trip, and each item reminds you when it is time to do it.
