When must information be submitted to the Coast Guard?	An applicant must submit information on form CG-3300 “Application for Permit to Enter Cuban Territorial Seas” to the Coast Guard Seventh District before a permit can be issued authorizing departure.
How is the information submitted?	Applicants for a Coast Guard permit must mail or fax completed applications to the Coast Guard Seventh District at (305) 415-6809 for approval.
What happens when complete information is received?	The CG will review the information and determine if the applicant holds the required licenses from other government agencies that allow them to engage in exports to and transactions with Cuba.
