Can anyone help me with the police certificate needed? I’m seeing some places saying it needs to come from Tegucigalpa and others saying it doesn’t matter. I have also heard it takes 2-4 hours to print and I’ve also heard it takes 5-7 days. Anyone have any experience with this?? Also, is 200 lempiras for the cost accurate?? No one at the DPI in Tegucigalpa will respond to us and we don’t want to make an unnecessary trip there if we don’t have to. Thanks :D

The above is correct.  DON'T take the police record someone would use to apply for a job.  

 

My husband lived in San Pedro Sula and we just got a lawyer in Tegucigalpa to get it for him.  It was only $75 or so.
