I am an Iranian Citizen. I am traveling from Iran to Havana, Cuba. Then from Havana, I am traveling to Freeport, Grand Bahama. I have a work permit for the Bahamas. My flight from Tehran to Havana is with Aeroflot. My flight from Havana to Freeport is via a different ticket and on BahamasAir.

Given all of the above, is a transit visa required for Cuba?

    What is your citizenship? Are both flights booked on the same ticket?

  • @Amir You will need to show your second airline ticket to Aeroflot when you check in to the first flight, so that they know you are transiting.
