Making America great again...

Re: Making America great again...

Here's a link to the new FAQ on Cuba. Items 30-32 apply.

Re: Making America great again...

So that is from Cuba, I am guessing the embargo still holds for purchasing rum and cigars while traveling outside of the US in other countries?

From the link Mark posted.

Quote:

32. Can I purchase Cuban-origin cigars and/or Cuban-origin rum or other Cuban-origin
alcohol while in a third country (i.e. not Cuba)?
Yes, persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction may purchase or acquire Cuban-origin merchandise,
including alcohol and tobacco products, while in a third country for personal consumption. Such
products may be consumed while in a third country, or imported into the United States as
accompanied baggage for personal use only. For a complete description of what this general
license authorizes and the restrictions that apply, see 31 CFR § 515.585(c) and (d)

Re: Making America great again...

Thanks Dom, I read the "for personal consumption" in 32 but read right past the "or imported in the United States"

If only I could read ..... ;)
