The president of Olanchanos Unidos foundation says the Foreign Ministry takes up to five months to repatriate Hondurans who die abroad, and urges faster action on humanitarian grounds; funeral homes have offered credit to help.

Honduras formally responded to a diplomatic note from El Salvador demanding that Honduras cease sovereign acts on Conejo Island in the Pacific, reaffirming Honduran sovereignty over the disputed territory.

Honduras's Foreign Ministry and Supreme Court have launched an online platform allowing Hondurans to request authenticated criminal records and apostilles (official document certifications) more quickly and cheaply, with apostilles costing 150 lempiras (about $6) and payable online or at consulates.

The Foreign Ministry appointed eight new consuls to represent Honduras in major U.S. cities including Miami, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, New York, San Francisco, New Orleans, and Tampa, officials say to strengthen services and protection for Hondurans abroad.

Honduras's Foreign Ministry said it is requesting urgent talks with the US Department of Homeland Security following a US Supreme Court decision on Temporary Protected Status, seeking a grace period and humanitarian approach for the thousands of Hondurans affected.

Honduras's foreign ministry denied on Tuesday that the government is negotiating to restore diplomatic relations with Taiwan, which were severed in March 2023 when the previous administration switched recognition to China.
