The euro is priced at 490 CUP, remaining above the dollar and consolidating its position as one of the strongest currencies in the parallel market of the island. The difference between the two currencies has remained stable over the past few weeks, with no significant variations.

On its part, the MLC (Freely Convertible Currency) rate stands at 280 CUP, according to data from the same source. These three currencies continue to be the primary reference for the informal exchange market in Cuba.
