Due to a lapse in appropriations, the U.S. Embassy in Cuba has announced that its website will not be updated regularly until full operations resume. Only urgent safety and security information will be posted during this period.
The embassy stated, "Due to the lapse in appropriations, this website will not be updated regularly until full operations resume, with the exception of urgent safety and security information."

The embassy noted, "At this time, scheduled passport and visas services in the United States and at U.S. Embassies and Consulates overseas will continue during the lapse in appropriations as the situation permits.
