Applicants can then either make their appointment online or by phone. Applicants are no longer able to make payments at Banco Atlántida since April 11, 2012.

DS-160 Non-Immigrant Visa Electronic Application

Individuals applying for a non-immigrant visa at the U.S. Embassy in Tegucigalpa are required to submit an electronic application form, known as the DS-160 Non-Immigrant Visa Electronic Application.

For more information on the DS-160 application form, please go to:

• Information on the DS-160 application form.

Notice: Visa applicants will print out only the confirmation page containing a bar code and bring this page to the interview. It is no longer necessary to bring a complete printed application form to the Consular Officer during the visa interview.

For K type Visas (Fiancé(e)s and their dependents), applicants should fill out the EVAF (Electronic Visa Application Form).

Important Note: Typical processing time for visa issuances from the time of the interview to receipt of the visa is approximately one week. Same-day service is not typically available. The U.S. Embassy strongly urges all individuals to apply for their visa at least three months in advance of planned travel. The Embassy is pleased to announce this new service which will better meet the needs of all visa applicants in Honduras.
