Free Chrome Web Store Items Can Now Be Distributed in Cuba

Dear Chrome Web Store Developer,

We ’ re reaching out to let you know that the Chrome Web Store will be adding support for the Cuba region. On October 19th, 2016, Cuba users will be able to access the Web Store to install free extensions, themes and apps.

With this change, free extensions, themes and apps that are currently published to “ All Regions ” in the developer dashboard will be automatically published to Cuba.

Items that aren ’ t currently published to “ All Regions ” will be excluded from the Cuba region by default.

If you wish to change your publishing settings, you can do so by toggling the appropriate check boxes in the “ Regions ” section on your item ’ s edit page in the Developer Dashboard.

Note: The default language for the Cuba region is Spanish. We strongly encourage you to internationalize your store listing if you intend to distribute it to users in multiple regions and languages.

Best,

The Chrome Web Store Team
