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 within 90 days of entry, renew it before traveling. | 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 within 90 days. Have a printed or digital copy ready. Airlines also check this before boarding. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Border officers may ask where you're staying. Have a hotel confirmation or a letter from your host with their address and phone number. A booking on your phone is fine. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | Immigration can ask for evidence of sufficient funds. Carry a bank statement or credit card showing at least $500 USD for your stay. Cash in USD is widely accepted. | Recommended |
Overstay fines are steep
Overstaying even one day costs about $50 USD per day. Immigration enforces this strictly. Set a reminder to leave before your 90 days are up.
Healthcare is limited
Medical care in Honduras is basic outside major cities. Private clinics in Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula are better but expensive. Travel insurance with medical evacuation coverage is strongly advised.
No visa needed for short trips
For tourism or business under 90 days, you don't need any visa. Just your passport, a return ticket, and proof of accommodation. Simple.

Frequently asked questions
No. The 90-day visa-free stay is not extendable. If you need to stay longer, you must leave Honduras before the 90 days are up and re-enter, or apply for a different visa type (like a tourist visa or work visa) at a Honduran consulate before traveling.
Overstaying is costly. You'll be fined approximately $50 USD per day. Overstays can also lead to a ban from re-entering Honduras. Always leave before your stamp expires.
No. Ukraine passport holders transiting through Honduras do not need a transit visa if you stay airside (don't pass through immigration) and your layover is under 24 hours. If you leave the airport or stay overnight, the visa-free entry (up to 90 days) applies instead.
No. The visa-free entry is for tourism, business meetings, or transit only. For work or study, you need a specific visa (work visa or student visa) obtained from a Honduran consulate before traveling.
Carry your passport (valid 6+ months), a printed or digital return/onward ticket, proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host letter), and proof of funds (bank statement or $500 USD cash). Having these ready speeds up the process and reduces the chance of denial.
No routine vaccinations are required for entry. However, if you're arriving from a country with yellow fever risk (e.g., Brazil, Colombia), you need a yellow fever vaccination certificate. Hepatitis A and typhoid vaccines are recommended. Malaria risk exists in rural areas, especially Gracias a Dios department — consider prophylaxis if you're going there.
If you want to stay longer than 90 days, consider a tourist visa (single or multiple entry) from a Honduran consulate — it allows up to 90 days per entry but still not extendable. For longer stays, look into a Pensionado Visa (retirement, ~$250 USD, renewable annually), Digital Nomad Visa (proposed, ~$200 USD), Investor Visa (~$500 USD, requires $50k investment), or Work Visa (~$300 USD, employer-sponsored). All require application at a Honduran consulate.
