Visas

Australia citizens normally receive 90-day tourist cards when entering the country; US citizens get 30 days. Upon arrival you will fill out a short immigration form, the yellow portion of which will be stapled into your passport.

This form will be collected when you depart, and it will be stamped if you seek an extension to you stay. Once inside Honduras, you can apply for an extension every 30 days, for a total stay of up to six months. After that you might have to leave the country for three days and re-enter.
