Murder in Cuba is classified into three major categories: murder with special circumstances, murder, and manslaughter.

Murder with special circumstances includes:

• murder of the president, vice president, a politician, police officer, any member of the military, or for children under the age of 14;
• murder committed in the commission of any violent felony, such as kidnapping, robbery, arson, or burglary; or
• murder of multiple persons.

Murder with special circumstances is punishable by a maximum term of life imprisonment, or by the death penalty.

Premeditated or non-premeditated intentional murder is punishable by a maximum term of 30 years.

Manslaughter is non-intentional homicide. It is punishable by between 7 and 25 years in prison.
