Honduras passport renewal in the United States

This guide carries fees and appointment systems verified against official sources — not generic ranges.

Verified fees

ValidityFee (USD)
5 years (at a consulate)$60
10 years (at a consulate)$75
5 years (mobile consulate)$78
10 years (mobile consulate)$97.50

Applicants under 21 can only get the 5-year passport. The four fees and the under-21 rule are stated in the SRECI FAQ (checked October 16, 2026): “Los menores de 21 años únicamente pueden solicitar pasaporte por 5 años.” The SRECI FAQ and the Embassy of Honduras passport page we checked (October 16, 2026) do not say which payment methods US consulates accept, so ask your consulate.

How appointments actually work

Book through the platform the Embassy of Honduras booking page links for your office (checked October 3, 2026): citaconsular.sreci.gob.hn for most US consulates, and asuntosconsulares.inm.gob.hn for Aurora, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Pittsburgh and Tampa. The embassy says booking is free. Save the confirmation — it is the first item on the embassy’s passport requirement list. The SRECI portal does not list every office: on September 24, 2026 its United States menu offered 11 of the 19 consular offices in the Embassy of Honduras directory; if yours is missing, contact it directly (the Houston consulate serves walk-ins, first come, first served). SRECI’s fee schedule lists separate mobile-consulate (consulado móvil) prices; ask your consulate about upcoming visits.

What the appointment system’s own terms say (checked October 16, 2026)

From the terms and conditions of ACOS, asuntosconsulares.inm.gob.hn:

  • It describes itself as “el único sitio autorizado y completamente gratuito para la programación de citas en las oficinas consulares de Honduras en el extranjero”.
  • Appointments are free and depend on slot availability at the consular office where you do the procedure.
  • It warns against fraud: make no payments or deposits to any person or business to obtain an appointment or any consular service, such as a passport or DNI.
  • If you do not attend the appointment and/or did not meet the requirements, the terms list two options: rescheduling the appointment, or requesting a refund (“devolución”) from the Secretaría de Estado en el Despacho de Finanzas in Honduras.

Documents

  • Appointment confirmation (comprobante de cita)
  • Proof of payment (comprobante de pago): the SRECI FAQ lists the valid DNI, proof of payment and appointment confirmation for adults over 21 (checked October 16, 2026)
  • Previous passport (valid or expired)
  • Photo: INM says the photo, fingerprints and other biometric data are captured at the office (INM)
  • Tarjeta de identidad (DNI hondureño) — valid, or proof that you have enrolled for the DNI (Embassy of Honduras passport requirements, October 3, 2026)

Applicants under 21 (checked October 16, 2026)

  • Validity: only the 5-year passport (SRECI FAQ).
  • SRECI FAQ: minors “deben presentar su documentación de nacimiento y cumplir con los requisitos de acompañamiento o autorización establecidos para el trámite”; SRECI recommends calling its ALHO VOZ call center before going.
  • INM’s passport page lists for under-21 applicants: a recent original birth certificate (Certificación de Acta de Nacimiento), “Presencia de ambos padres con su DNI original y copia”, a payment receipt in the minor’s name, and, if one parent is absent, a legalized notarial power of attorney (“poder notarial legalizado”). INM’s page describes payment at authorized banks and does not say this list is the one used at US consulates.

The Embassy of Honduras minor-passport page specifies these consular requirements (checked October 17, 2026):

  • Both parents’ valid DNI or passport.
  • If one or both parents are absent, the minor must attend with an adult over 21 carrying a valid DNI or passport. The corresponding authorization must be authenticated or apostilled, with a printed copy of the parents’ DNI or passport.
  • Consular procedures are personal and in person; all original documents must be presented.

Emergency passport (checked October 16, 2026)

INM says it has mechanisms for cases that require an emergency passport, “de acuerdo con las circunstancias y requisitos establecidos por la institución”, and that “La emisión de este documento está sujeta a la evaluación y verificación correspondiente.” INM’s page states no fee or validity for it and does not say whether US consulates issue it. INM call center: 504 2232-7800, callcenter@inm.gob.hn.

Delivery

According to the SRECI FAQ (checked October 16, 2026), if the consular office has a printing center the passport is delivered the same day, “salvo circunstancia ajenas”; if the office has no production center, ask the consulate where you applied about delivery times. SRECI recommends calling its ALHO VOZ call center before going. To have the passport sent to your home, at your own risk, SRECI’s fee schedule says to bring a US$6.45 stamp.

US immigration documents are not on the requirement list

The requirement lists summarized above ask for home-country documents, not for US immigration papers; the passport follows from nationality. Consulates operate under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (1963). We found no official source on whether or how a consulate shares applicant data with US agencies, so we make no claim either way.
