Currency Exchange Guide for San Pedro Sula
BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): Do not exchange substantial sums at Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport (SAP), where terminal kiosks charge markups exceeding 10%. In San Pedro Sula’s secure commercial zones, inside modern enclosed shopping malls such as Mall Multiplaza and City Mall, major commercial banks (Banco Ficohsa, BAC Credomatic, Banco Atlántida) offer tight spreads between 1.0% and 1.8% pegged to Central Bank of Honduras (BCH) reference rates.
San Pedro Sula is the industrial and commercial driver of Honduras. Foreign exchange transactions are strictly channeled through the formal national banking system, ensuring regulated rates and high transaction safety.

Local Money Logistics & Payment Methods
A licensed official taxi from Villeda Morales Airport to major hotels along Avenida Circunvalación costs about 20 to 25 USD and takes 25 to 35 minutes. Public transit buses are not recommended for international visitors carrying luggage. Bring crisp 20, 50, or 100 USD bills without pen marks or folds for over-the-counter exchange.
Regulations, Taxes & Counterfeit Safety
Currency transactions in Honduras are overseen by the Banco Central de Honduras (BCH). International visitors must present their physical original passport for identity verification. Bringing more than 10,000 USD in physical cash into Honduras requires a mandatory customs declaration.
