How to Apply for an OFAC Cuba Travel License

Apply Yourself

Apply directly to OFAC yourself. Here is some text from the OFAC website.

Most license applications do not have to be submitted on a particular form. However, it is essential to include in the request all necessary information as required in the application guidelines or the regulations pertaining to the particular embargo program. When applying for a license, provide a detailed description of the proposed transaction, including the names and addresses of any individuals/companies involved. The mailing address for license applications is:

Office of Foreign Assets Control
U.S. Department of the Treasury
Treasury Annex
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington , DC 20220
Attn: Licensing Division

OFAC regularly updates the Cuba service provider list.
