    The Department of State announced an update to its Cuba Restricted List, which includes entities and subentities in Cuba with which financial transactions are discouraged, as they might benefit the Cuban military or government at the expense of the Cuban people. This update, which took effect on January 8, 2021, includes one additional subentity and is part of ongoing measures outlined in a 2017 policy directive to strengthen U.S. policy towards Cuba. More information about the updated list can be found on the State Department's website.

    The U.S. Department of State has published a list of entities and subentities associated with Cuba, known as the "Cuba Restricted List." This list includes organizations connected to the Cuban military, intelligence, or security services, with which direct financial transactions are generally prohibited due to Cuban Assets Control Regulations (CACR). Transactions with these entities are seen as disproportionately benefiting the Cuban government while impacting its people and private enterprises negatively. The list is available on the State Department's website and will be updated periodically.
