Abortion in Honduras
Information about abortion access and services in Honduras.
Is abortion legal in Honduras?
No. Honduras bans all abortions, with legal penalties for patients, providers, and anyone who assists. Under Honduras's Penal Code (Article 126) and the 1982 constitutional ban (strengthened by a 2021 amendment), abortion is illegal in all cases. Violators (women, girls, or providers) can face up to six years in prison, and providers may also face additional professional sanctions. Emergency contraception was also prohibited until March 2023. Since then, regulatory changes have made it available over the counter at pharmacies [4].
