Rate Info
About This Reference Rate
Three different numbers describe one currency here: a long-standing official rate used for some state and tourism transactions, a separate bank and exchange-house buying rate, and an informal market rate that has drifted far higher than either as Cuba's economy has faced persistent shortages of hard currency. This page's reference rate is the standard official one, converted through current dollar cross-rates, and it should not be assumed to match what money changers or informal traders are actually offering.
Common Uses
Why This Pair Comes Up
A few specific situations explain most of the interest in comparing these two currencies.
Understanding Cuba's Multiple Exchange Rates
Anyone researching Cuba quickly runs into several different peso values depending on the source, and this page's rate reflects the standard official figure rather than the informal market, which has typically traded far higher.
Tracing What Old CUC Amounts Are Worth Now
Since Cuba folded its old convertible peso into the regular CUP in 2021 at 24 CUP per CUC, anyone working out what a pre-2021 CUC figure equals today ends up here.
Academic and Journalistic Research
Cuba's economy and currency situation draw regular coverage and study, and researchers or writers comparing peso figures to rupees for context use this conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the CUP to INR exchange rate?
Using the standard official reference of 24 CUP per US dollar, one CUP works out to roughly 3.475 Indian rupees. Informal market rates in Cuba have traded far higher than this official figure, so treat this as one reference point among several.
How much is 1,000 CUP in Indian rupees?
1,000 CUP comes to roughly 3,475.00 INR at the official reference rate used here, though this would convert to a much smaller rupee amount at Cuba's informal market rate.
How much is 100,000 CUP in Indian rupees?
100,000 CUP converts to about 347,500.00 INR at the official rate shown on this page, a figure that assumes access to the official rate rather than the informal market.
Why does Cuba have more than one exchange rate?
Decades of US sanctions have limited Cuba's access to hard currency, and the government has kept an official rate for certain state and tourism uses while an informal market, trading far higher, has emerged to reflect actual scarcity.
Which rate should I actually use?
It depends what you're doing. Formal institutional transactions typically reference the official rate, while anyone trying to understand real purchasing power on the ground in Cuba needs to look at current informal market figures instead.
Is the Cuban peso the same as the old CUC?
No. CUP is Cuba's long-standing domestic peso, while CUC was a separate convertible peso used mainly for tourism and foreign trade until Cuba retired it in 2021 and folded it into CUP at 24 CUP per CUC.
Does India trade with Cuba?
The two countries maintain diplomatic and limited trade ties, including some pharmaceutical and biotech links, but bilateral commercial volumes stay modest compared to India's larger trading partners.
Why has the informal peso rate kept climbing?
Persistent shortages of dollars and other hard currency, driven partly by the long-running US embargo and partly by domestic economic difficulties, have pushed more transactions toward the informal market, widening the gap with the official rate.
Can I exchange rupees for Cuban pesos in India?
In practice, no. Cuban pesos aren't stocked by mainstream Indian forex dealers, and travelers to Cuba typically carry euros or another widely accepted currency to exchange locally instead.
