Tax profile

What makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.

• having permanent residence in Cuba (residencia permanente en el territorio nacional)
• being present in Cuba for more than 183 days in a calendar year
• having the center of economic interests in Cuba (centro de intereses económicos en el territorio nacional)

Tax residency is based on permanent residence/domicile, day count, or economic center, so simply dropping below 183 days may not suffice if you keep your permanent residence or main economic interests in Cuba; cutting those ties generally ends residency without a multi‑year tail or explicit exit tax.
