What you should know

Key points of Cuba's foreign-investment policy and Law No. 118.

Foreign capital may participate in national scientific and technological projects, preserving the intellectual property of the results — especially trademarks and patents created by the Cuban party.

The foreign partner, under equal conditions with third parties, may be a supplier and client of the business.

In the extraction of natural resources, public services, biotechnology, wholesale trade and tourism, Cuban participation will always be in the majority.

In projects contemplating the export of goods or services, the foreign part will guarantee the market.

Infrastructure investments may be executed with long-term financing, prioritizing those associated with tourism development.

State property will not be transferred, nor will exclusive rights over the Cuban market be granted.
