In Aug 2024, in response to the UK changing their policy and requiring a visa for Honduras travelers, Honduras also changed their policies and started requiring a visa for British travelers wanting to visit. This has discouraged UK passport holders from visiting Honduras, which is really a shame, as Honduras is a beautiful country to discover. For British travelers that have wanted to get the visa and come, finding out information on what is required has also been difficult. I've recently had UK guests who have completed the visa process, one from the Canadian Consulate in Montreal, as he was in Canada before his trip down, and a couple who did the process in Guatemala while they were traveling. Both said that the easiest would probably be in London, England before traveling, but as travel dates and accommodation arrangements need to be done for the visa, sometimes that's not an option.
Here is the information I've gathered on the process, just to give future British travelers an idea of requirements. I would suggest getting in touch with the Honduran consulate to verify requirements.
Payment: $30US for up to 30 days, or $60 for up to 90 days. In Canada, the payment had to be done as a bank draft. In Guatemala, visa applicants are sent with a form to a nearby.

You will need the following documents if you are applying for a Honduras visa:
- Proof of where you will be staying in Honduras
- Letter in Spanish explaining your reason of visiting the country, where you’ll be staying and who you’ll be traveling with and how you have funded your trip
- 3 months of recent bank statements
- 3 months of payslips (if your not working state that your not working) but you’ll have to explain how you funded your trip in your Spanish letter so just put “we saved for x amount of time for this trip”
- criminal background check which you can get on the DBS website just a basic one I think it’s £22. Online it says the certificate takes 14 days or 14 days to process but when you apply you can track your application process and view your results online we just did this and it took 48 hours. You then need to take a screenshot of it or send the view link to the embassy
- 2 passport sized photos
- photocopy of your passport on the photo page
- photo of driving licence or another photo ID
- proof of travel in and out of Honduras if you don’t know just explain in your Spanish letter that you plan to stay for 30 days and you will travel overland from your destination to your next destination by bus. They didn’t ask to see any flight details or bus tickets but I think it depends who you have at your appointment or you could explain that you will book onwards travel once the visa is approved

Note from the travelers that did this application in Guatemala "There was a list of other stuff but it didn’t apply to us. If you have all these documents prepared in advance I think you can email them to the office. They will then email you back within 7 days and will send you a link to book a face to face appointment. You could take the chance and turn up to the embassy in person with all these documents and try to get one the same day but not sure how that works we tried to do that but we had no documents so was turned away "
