Brazilian passport holders can enter Honduras without a visa for tourism or business stays up to 90 days. This policy remains in effect for 2026. Your passport must be valid for at least six months from your entry date.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport needs to be valid for the entire time you plan to stay in Honduras. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires before you leave, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Honduras | Immigration officers at Toncontín Airport and land borders routinely ask for a return or onward ticket. Have a printed or digital copy ready — a bus ticket to Nicaragua or a flight to San Salvador works. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Officers sometimes ask where you are staying. A hotel confirmation email or a letter from a friend with their address is enough. No need to book the whole trip — just the first night. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | Immigration may ask how you plan to pay for your stay. A credit card, bank statement, or cash (around $500 USD equivalent) covers this. They rarely count — just show you have access to money. | Recommended |
