  • No specific photo requirements for entry
  • No biometrics collected on arrival
  • Travel health insurance not mandatory but recommended

Visa types

  • No visa is required for tourism up to 90 days. Honduras is part of the CA-4 Border Control Agreement with Guatemala, El Salvador, and Nicaragua, so your 90 days is shared across all four countries combined. Other categories:

  • Up to 90 days total within the CA-4 zone (Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua combined), stamped on arrival
  • No work permitted under visa-free entry
  • Extensions can be requested at the Instituto Nacional de Migracion in Tegucigalpa before the 90 days expire
  • Track your cumulative days across the whole CA-4 zone to avoid an accidental overstay

Fees & processing time

  • No visa fee for entry
  • No processing time — entry is granted on arrival with a passport stamp
  • Extension fee at the Instituto Nacional de Migracion: approximately 20 to 35 US dollars
  • No VFS or agency fees for standard entry

Tips for France travelers

  • Track your cumulative days across the CA-4 zone, not just Honduras, to avoid overstay penalties
  • Keep your entry stamp and boarding passes as proof of your travel dates
  • Check security advisories for specific regions before planning overland travel
  • Direct flights from France are rare; most routes connect through the US or Mexico City
