Actualizado: October 2026
Travelers entering or leaving Honduras must complete the Honduras customs declaration form and keep the QR code generated after registration. The official form is available in English and Spanish. Use the button below to open it, then follow the steps in this guide for your flight, family and luggage.
This is an independent guide. Complete the declaration on the Honduran Customs website, not on this page. The form and its fields were reviewed on October 29, 2026.
What to have ready before you start
- Your passport or travel document, including the exact spelling of your name and document number.
- Entry or exit date, airport, airline and flight details.
- Countries of departure, residence and destination, plus your accommodation address.
- Number of accompanying family members and bags.
- Details needed to answer the questions about money, goods and controlled items.
How to complete the Honduras customs declaration online
- Open the official form and select English. The language selector lists en_US and es_HN. Check that you are on the regional traveler declaration, not a commercial cargo declaration.
- Choose Entry or Exit. Select the transport option, travel date and customs office for the journey. For a round trip, check the details for each movement separately.
- Enter your personal information. Copy your names and document details carefully, then complete nationality and date of birth. Do not enter another traveler’s passport number.
- Complete your itinerary and family details. Check the flight, requested countries, intended address, accompanying relatives and luggage.
- Answer the customs questions. These cover money and valuables, food and animals, controlled products and goods outside your luggage allowance categories. Answer based on what you actually carry.
- Review and register. Check the operation, airport, date, name, passport number and declarations before submitting.
- Save the document with its QR code. Open the downloaded file and save a readable copy on your phone. Keep it available without an internet connection.
Country, passport and address fields explained
| Field | What to check |
|---|---|
| Country of departure | Your point of departure for that journey. If you have connections, check your itinerary against the form instructions. |
| Country of residence | Where you live; this is not automatically your nationality. |
| Country of destination | Where you are traveling for the entry or exit being declared. |
| Travel document number | The form asks for the number without hyphens or spaces. |
| Intended address | Have your hotel or accommodation address ready. |
During our review, the land and sea transport options were disabled on this form route. If you are not flying, confirm the procedure for your crossing with Customs. Do not select a flight or airport that does not match your trip just to continue.
When to complete it and what to do with the QR code
Complete the form before you head to the airport, once your travel details are confirmed. Palmerola Airport publishes that it can be completed up to three days beforehand. Also check the date guidance shown in the current form; do not rely on an old article as proof that a registration will be valid.
The QR code is the result you need to keep after registering. Saving a screenshot of a blank or partly completed form is not the same thing. Download the generated document, make sure it opens and keep a backup. Avoid posting your declaration online because it contains travel information.
Traveling as a family
The official form allows a traveler or head of family to declare and asks for the number of accompanying relatives. A family traveling together can use the head-of-family declaration. Check the group details and belongings carefully. Sharing a flight does not by itself make unrelated travelers a family group.
This declaration does not replace a child’s travel document or any consent or permission required for the journey. Treat those as separate preparations.
Money, food and other goods
The money-and-valuables question uses a threshold of US$10,000 or its equivalent, including exactly US$10,000, across the categories it lists. Read the entire question rather than counting only US-dollar banknotes. Answer accurately and keep any supporting information you may need.
Separate questions cover animals, plants and food; chemicals, pharmaceutical products, weapons and other controlled items; and goods other than luggage. Where goods must be listed, prepare their description, quantity and value. Calling something a gift does not automatically make it exempt from customs controls or duties.
If the form will not load or you cannot find your QR
- Page will not open: check your connection and reopen the official link. If using an in-app browser, try your phone’s regular browser.
- Required field error: review incomplete fields and dependent selections, including transport and customs office. Do not invent information.
- No QR after submitting: check whether registration completed and whether a file was downloaded. Do not assume a declaration exists without the result.
- Wrong details after registration: keep the reference and ask Customs for instructions. We have not verified a post-submission editing option.
- Support: the official platform publishes soporte@aduanas.gob.hn. Do not post passport numbers or travel documents in public comments.
Customs declaration versus immigration pre-check
The traveler customs declaration and immigration pre-check are different systems. Completing one does not automatically complete the other. Check the immigration requirements that apply to your nationality and journey with the Honduran authorities and your airline; do not assume everyone needs the same extra form.
If you need to identify the immigration system, see our Honduras immigration pre-check guide. For Honduran travel documents, use the passport appointment guide. You can also read this customs declaration guide in Spanish.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need the customs form if I only have personal luggage?
Yes. The official form addresses travelers or heads of family entering or leaving Honduras. Having no commercial goods does not remove the declaration requirement.
Can I show the QR code on my phone?
Yes. Keep the generated document and a readable screenshot available offline. A printed copy can be a useful backup, but you can present the code electronically.
Do I need a declaration when leaving Honduras?
Yes. The form includes Entry and Exit options. Check that the operation, date and travel details match the journey you are declaring.
Does each family member need a separate form?
A head of family can declare for a family traveling together. The form asks how many relatives accompany the traveler. Follow its instructions for your actual group.
Is the customs declaration the same as immigration pre-check?
No. The customs declaration concerns the traveler and belongings. Immigration pre-check is a separate process whose applicability must be checked for your nationality and trip.
Can I edit a declaration after submitting it?
We have not verified a post-submission editing function. If your registered declaration contains an error, contact Honduran Customs support or your airline rather than assuming that the record has been corrected.
