Honduran passports ({{langx|es|Pasaporte hondureño}}) are travel documents issued to Honduran citizens to travel outside Honduras.
As of 2024, Honduran citizens had visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 133 countries and territories, ranking the Honduran passport 38th in terms of travel freedom (tied with Dominica and El Salvador) according to the Henley visa restrictions index.{{cite web|title=Global Ranking - Visa Restriction Index 2019|url=https://www.henleypassportindex.com/assets/2019/PI%202019%20INFOGRAPHS%20GLOBAL%20190107.pdf|publisher=Henley & Partners|access-date=23 January 2019}}
