Honduras Passport Appointment
Obtaining or renewing your Honduran passport is an essential process for every Honduran citizen residing in the United States.
Fortunately, Honduran consulates in the United States offer an appointment system that facilitates this process.
Here we will provide you with a detailed guide with the 5 key points for you to make your appointment without any inconvenience.
Importance of appointments
The appointment system is a measure that Honduran consulates have implemented to provide efficient and organized service.
This allows consulates to properly manage demand and reduce waiting times. Without an appointment, you may not be able to be seen.
How to schedule your appointment?
- Official website: The first step is to enter the official website of the Honduran consulate in the United States. It is essential that you use only official resources to avoid fraud or misinformation.
- Registration: You will need to create an account by providing some personal and contact information. This will allow you to manage and modify your appointment if necessary.
- Choice of services: Once registered, select the “Honduran Passport” service. Some consulates may also offer additional services, such as civil registration or legalizations.
- Date and time: Select the date and time that suits you best. It is advisable to do so in advance, especially in times of high demand.
Appointment requirements and documentation
- Honduran identity document: In case you do not have it, you can present a Birth Certificate accompanied by a document with a photo, such as DACA, residency, or TPS. If a non-photo ID is available, a relative (father, mother, older brother/sister, or uncle/aunt with an ID card) must make an affidavit of relationship.
- If you are under 21 years old: It is necessary to present yourself with both parents. If one of them is unable to attend, he/she must send an original authorization, either from consulate to consulate or from an attorney in Honduras.
- Married name: If you want your married name to appear in your passport, it is essential to present the Marriage Certificate legalized and registered in the RNP.
- Appointment confirmation: After scheduling the appointment, it is necessary to check the e-mail, where you will receive a confirmation that must be printed and presented on the day of the appointment. It is important to mention that appointments are free and non-transferable.
- Photographs: Two recent passport size images are required.
- Proof of U.S. residency.
- Previous passport: If it is a renewal, the previous Honduran passport must be presented.
- Proof of payment: Proof of payment is required, if applicable.
By being well informed and having all the necessary documents, the process of processing or renewing your passport will be faster and more efficient. It is always advisable to follow the official guidelines of the Honduran consulate or embassy in the United States.
Recommendations
- Punctuality: Arrive in plenty of time before your appointment. Delay may result in cancellation.
- Documentation: Make sure you have all your documents in order and ready to present.
- Follow-up: After your appointment, you may need to follow up to confirm the status of your application or receive your passport.
Passports for minors

Consult the specifications of the consulate in question for full details.
