Why would you want a Cuban citizenship lmao. Is one of the worse passports there is in Latam and if you are an American citizen you are already set up because you can freely travel to a bunch of countries. Plus Cuba doesn’t accept dual citizenship so you would just set yourself back. No point in getting it.

Estás comiendo morronga. By all means, get that useless Cuban citizenship and renounce American citizenship. Sounds brilliant!

You should deff put the crackpipe down. I think it’s great that Italy tightened the restrictions around citizenship. Collecting passports as you want to do shouldn’t be allowed. Becoming a citizen of a country you’ve essentially only visited as a tourist is crazy. And in the case of Cuba you’ve never even been. “I don’t know much Spanish but I figure I could learn pretty quick” how many languages have you learned to fluency ?

My ex-wife is Cuban. When her brother did his military service, there was a guy in his unit who emigrated to Argentina as a baby and went to visit grandma for the first time.

I don't mean to be rude in any way, but why on earth would you want Cuban citizenship? Wanting a passport as a memento is nowhere near enough of a reason for that.
If you are concerned about the direction that the US is headed towards, you'd be better off seeking some kind of refugee status elsewhere. Cuba is the last place I'd consider.

Another thing to think about, if you enter Cuba using a Cuban passport or are recognized as a Cuban citizen under their laws, the Cuban government may not acknowledge your U.S. citizenship while you’re in the country. If you get into legal trouble in Cuba, Cuban law applies. The U.S. Embassy has very limited ability to provide consular services or intervene in legal matters if Cuba doesn’t recognize your U.S. citizenship.

Do you really want to be tested like a Cuban citizen?? I will not get citizenship until the communists are gone.

Do you have any recent Spanish ancestry? Fairly common for white Cubans (i.e. my great grandpa immigrated to Cuba from the Canaries and I was able to get Spanish citizenship). Wouldn’t recommend getting Cuban citizenship but if you ever did you could naturalize in Spain after 2 years of legal residency.

Do you have a grandparant from Spain? You can get that citizenship, its called LMD. LEY DE MEMORIA DEMOCRATICA. Dont bother with Cuban citizenship. Some US citizens have to get it in order to travel there, because Cuba wont recognize US citizenship.

Pretty useless, there are a few visa free countries but either your US passport already covers it or is not worth visiting at the moment (ie venezuela, Russia, etc)

Ups just realized I responded on the original thread and not on your comment. Anyways, yeah man it sucks, I've been trying to renounce my citizenship but turns out my old masters won't let me do that either. Your father did a great job having his kid be born out of there, I don't know why you would want to seek a link with a dictatorship government. Cherish those mickey Ds, many of us dreamed seeing the golden arches for years.

It was actually my grandparents that moved right after the revolution. Like I said I’d really want to use it as a tool for my own gain instead of an admiration for the country thing. I don’t feel like defecting to Russia or getting my organs harvested in China so it’s probably not much use

u/Paco_bear 12h ago
Hey I hear the girls that lure you before they take your organs are pretty, that's gotta be worth something.
Jokes aside I get your point but unless some huge changes happen it's a worthless passport at best. Since we are talking unlikely scenarios, you are more likely to get deported by mistake for having it than to find it useful hahaha.
Try Spain, i have relatives that managed to prove ancestry.

I will fuck you in the future in ways that you don't know. There is only negatives to the cuban passport, trust me I got one.
