Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for at least the length of your 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 routinely ask for a return or onward ticket at the border. Have a printed or digital copy of your outbound flight booking ready — they check this before stamping you in. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Immigration may ask where you are staying. Have a hotel reservation confirmation or a letter from your host with their address and phone number ready to show. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Officers can ask for evidence of sufficient funds. Carry a bank statement or credit card showing you have at least $500 USD available for your trip. | Recommended |
Passport validity is strictly enforced
Airlines and immigration will deny boarding or entry if your passport has less than 6 months validity from your arrival date. This is non-negotiable. Check your passport now, not at the airport.
No visa, but still need proof of onward travel
Even though you don't need a visa, immigration officers often ask for a return or onward ticket. Have a screenshot or printout ready. If you don't have one, you may be asked to buy a ticket on the spot.
What happens at the border
1
Prepare your documents
Before you leave, check your passport validity (6+ months from entry), print or save your return ticket, and have your first night's accommodation address handy. If you're flying into Toncontín International Airport (TGU) in Tegucigalpa or Ramón Villeda Morales Airport (SAP) in San Pedro Sula, immigration queues can be slow — have everything ready to speed things up.
2
Arrive and go through immigration
At the airport, follow signs to 'Migración' (Immigration). Present your passport and the completed entry form (usually given on the plane). The officer will stamp your passport with a 90-day stay. They may ask for your return ticket or accommodation — just show the screenshot or printout. No visa fee is charged.
3
Collect your luggage and exit
After immigration, head to baggage claim, then customs. You'll likely pass through a green/red channel — declare any goods over $500 or restricted items. Then you're free to leave the airport.

Frequently asked questions
No, the visa-free stay is not extendable. You must leave Honduras before the 90 days are up. Overstaying can result in fines or a ban from re-entry. If you need to stay longer, you'd have to leave the country and re-enter, but immigration may question frequent back-to-back visits.
No, Slovak passport holders do not need a visa for transit. You can stay in the airport's international transit area without a visa. If you need to leave the airport, you'd need to meet the standard entry requirements (passport validity, return ticket).
You will likely be denied boarding by the airline or refused entry at the border. Airlines check this before you fly. If your passport expires within 6 months of your arrival date, renew it before traveling. There are no exceptions for short trips.
No, entry is visa-free and there is no fee. You don't need to pay anything at immigration. Just present your passport and any supporting documents if asked.
No, there is no online pre-registration or arrival declaration required for Slovak citizens. You'll fill out a paper entry form on the plane or at immigration upon arrival. Keep it simple.
You cannot extend the visa-free stay. For work, study, or long-term stays, you need to apply for a specific visa or residence permit at a Honduran embassy before traveling. Contact the Embassy of Honduras in Vienna (which covers Slovakia) for details.
