Spanish passport holders need a tourist card (tarjeta de turista) to enter Cuba. This is not a visa in the traditional sense. You buy it from the airline, a travel agency, or the Cuban consulate before departure. The cost is around EUR 22 to EUR 25 when bought in Spain. Some airlines sell it at the gate or include it in the ticket price. The card allows a stay of 30 days.
The 30-day tourist card can be extended once for another 30 days at an immigration office (Oficina de Tramites) inside Cuba. The extension costs CUP 2,500 (roughly EUR 25 at the official rate). Bring your passport, the tourist card, and proof of accommodation.
Cuba requires travel medical insurance that covers the full stay. Spanish travel insurance policies usually qualify, but carry the policy document in English or Spanish. If you cannot prove coverage at the airport, you will be required to buy a Cuban government policy on the spot.
