Quito. - Ecuador's government announced that from next Monday Cubans who want to enter the country must submit a letter of invitation, after Havana implement immigration reform that will allow most citizens leave the country as alone with his passport.
. The Ecuadorian or foreign resident in Ecuador to invite must make a sworn statement in which it agrees to cover all costs of the Cuban and demonstrate financial solvency by submitting your last filed income tax.

. As of last Monday, most of the inhabitants of the island only need to leave Cuba passport, visa, if required by the destination country, and a plane ticket.
However, immigration reform remains limited for foreign travel managers, health professionals and education and athletes who are "vital" to the country.
