Visa Information

Visa Issues: If you choose to stay longer than 90 days, it is important to factor in the costs to renew your tourist visa. Visa issues can really vary from country to country so it’s best to get advice from your own government before you come. Volunteers from most countries can enter on a tourist visa that is good for 90 days and will need nothing other than a valid passport to enter the country. If you plan to be here for more than 3 months, you will need to leave the country for at least three days before you can return. The easiest and least expensive option is to go to Belize. For those renewing their tourist visa by traveling to Belize, there is the option to take a boat from Puerto Cortes about 2 hours across the Bay of Honduras.
