In 2013, UNESCO recognized the cultural significance of Cuban dominoes by inscribing it on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. This acknowledgment highlighted the game's role in fostering social bonds, preserving traditions, and promoting a sense of identity and continuity among the Cuban people.

Today, dominoes remain an integral part of Cuban life, with the distinct sound of shuffling tiles and lively banter echoing through the streets. It serves as a reminder of the resilience, camaraderie, and cultural pride that define the Cuban spirit.
