Hello Ladies
Did anyone else get this notice from ILA??
This is to inform all of you who have future weddings booked in our hotel that as a new regulation created by the MINJUS (Ministry of Justice) of Cuba there is a tax on documents to be paid for weddings, appart from the price of the wedding as such (or wedding package), which must be paid to the Notary in cash. This cash is used to pay for the different stamps required to legalise the marriage certificate afterwards at the MINREX and Consulate/Embassy.* In the case of single parties the tax consists of 40 cuc and for divorced parties it is 85 cuc.

Please, these costs and new regulations have been decided at national level and have no relation whatsoever with the specific hotels, as it has been ruled by the MINJUS of Cuba and are applicable to all marriages of foreigners that are celebrated in any part of the Cuban territory.
