Process for requesting "licence" to travel to Cuba from the U.S. Dept. of Treasury. (NB: at the very best, this application process will require at least two weeks. Please start right away.)

Also, it's a good idea to read the OFAC regulations on who can legally go to Cuba. You will find those here:

Here is the letter that worked for Tom Johnson to get approval to attend the Havana meeting in Jan. 2008. Obviously, you don't want to copy this letter exactly.

Marcelo Chacon writes on May 8, 2008: "Any other people from the U.S. that would like to participate in the seminar should send the same information to me (as soon as possible), and then I start the process to get the invitation letter." ▲
