Entrada y visados
British tourists can visit visa-free for up to 90 days, subject to the shared CA-4 period. Crossing a CA-4 border does not reset it; British citizens still need a Honduran visa. Carry an onward ticket and USD 10 cash for the arrival stamp. Non-tourist travellers should check pre-registration guidance.
Validez del pasaporte: British passports: at least 6 months beyond arrival.
