Parcel delivery to Honduras


The Republic of Honduras is a Cental American country that neighbors Belize, Guatemala, and El Salvador. The country holds a population of over eight million people within 112.5 thousand square kilometers. Over half the population is below the poverty line. The economy of Honduras relies heavily on the exportaion of minerals, tropical agriculture, and textiles. The vast majority of the roads and airports in Honduras are unpaved. This may result in delays for some destinations. There are several large ports off the coast of the Caribbean, and one on the narrow Pacific Ocean border.


Customs for parcel shipping to Honduras


Everything that is imported into Honduras is inspected by Customs Brokerage, except documents. Most shipments take about 30 minutes to clear. But this process can be delayed if the shipper has failed to submit the appropriate documentation. Persons wishing to ship personal effects for an extended stay must be present at the time of inspection. It is possible to bring a reasonable amount of liquor or tobacco into Honduras for personal consumption. Duties apply to tobacco (more than 1 lb), new electronics, plants, and motor vehicles.
