Felon entry rules

VISA REQUIRED — All U.S. citizens must obtain a Cuban Tourist Card (visa) and travel authorization.
Cuba's immigration authorities have broad discretion to deny entry. The visa application does not formally ask about criminal history, but Cuban authorities can deny any applicant.
U.S.-Cuba information sharing is severely limited; criminal records are unlikely to be cross-checked.
Practically speaking, most U.S. travelers with felonies are not questioned or denied, but legal authority exists for discretionary denial.
Note: U.S. OFAC regulations (31 CFR Part 515) restrict categories of authorized travel for U.S. citizens — verify authorized travel categories separately.

No formal RSO-specific entry rules identifiable in Cuban immigration law. (verify with embassy before travel)
IML notification may be transmitted but Cuba-U.S. information cooperation is limited. Practical effect of IML notification to Cuba is unclear.

21-day advance notice applies for covered registered persons.

Yes — 21-day advance notice (IML, 34 U.S.C. § 20914).
