The informal currency exchange market in Cuba shows a stable pattern this Sunday, December 28, 2025, with no significant variations in the main currencies against the Cuban peso (CUP), following several days of relative calm.

According to the latest references from the informal market, the exchange rates remain at the following values:

United States Dollar (USD): 435 CUP

Euro (EUR): 480 CUP

Freely Convertible Currency (MLC): 400 CUP

The euro continues to be the highest-valued currency, while the dollar remains above 430 Cuban pesos. Meanwhile, the MLC stays below the dollar, although it is still far from the official rate set by the State.

The absence of sharp movements this Sunday contrasts with previous weeks marked by volatility, although analysts warn that the stability remains fragile, in a context of currency shortages, persistent inflation, and a severely deteriorated domestic economy.

Despite the momentary calm, the informal market remains the primary reference for the population, due to the limited official supply of foreign currencies and the restrictions imposed by the state banking system.
