Q: I have read that you may bring Cuban cigars into the United States for personal use. In other words, the trade embargo does not prohibit the import of small quantities of Cuban cigars. Is that true?

A: You've heard wrong. The Trading with the Enemies Act, which includes the Cuban trade embargo, specifically prohibits the importation of all Cuban goods, in whatever quantity. There is an exception. If you can obtain an official Cuban visa, which is available to academics and journalists and sometimes professionals who are attending events such as film and art festivals in Cuba, you may bring up to $100 of Cuban goods if you travel directly from Cuba to the U.S. mainland. But if you purchase those Cuban products in a third country on your way back to the United States, you are subject to the embargo's restrictions. Fines can be stiff for illegal travel to Cuba, and although it is still rare, you can be fined for trying to import Cuban goods. By the way, we've discovered that the U.S. Customs service is being much more thorough in its attempts to stop the illegal imports of Cuban cigars. Seizures of cigars are up at every major airport in the United States.
