Cuban Criminal Code on Unauthorised Small Arms and Light Weapons
Under articles 211 and 212 of the Cuban Criminal Code, the acquisition, carrying or possession, as well as the manufacture, sell or transfer of firearms without a permit are condemned as criminal offences.
In parallel, it is stipulated that, even if holding a lawful authorisation to carry a firearm, one cannot carry it in a place or at an event where it has been prohibited to do so under a provision from the competent authority, nor should it be given or transferred to someone else.
