I have heard that there are visa restrictions in Honduras. I am aware
that I get a 3 month visa upon entry, and can extended another month by
paying the local immigration officer $20, but what if I want to
work in your dive center - or others if you have no work to offer - and need a
longer visa or even a working visa, like the ones they have in Mexico?
Most international visitors get an initial 90 days when you first enter Honduras and then
another month for $20, this is not a working VISA so you
have to pay the local council an unofficial working permit of $100 per
year as an Instructor. Right now the Honduran government is very
relaxed about foreigners working in the tourism diving industry as they
do not have the local labour to meet market demands though thins may
change in the future. After 4 months you have to leave the
country for 48 hours and then return, most people use this as a
vacation opportunity after 4 months of living on a small island and
take off to either Guatemala or Costa Rica. |
