Overview and role of the EITI

Honduras is no longer a member of the EITI. The EITI Board delisted Honduras from the EITI on 13 March 2025 due to lack of government engagement and multi-stakeholder oversight. The decision followed two consecutive targeted assessments that found the country had not made sufficient progress in meeting the EITI Standard requirements on stakeholder engagement.

Honduras joined the EITI in 2013. The 2013 Mining Law mandated mining license holders to comply with the EITI Standard, and Honduras published five EITI Reports.

In October 2020, Honduras was temporarily suspended due to "inadequate progress" on civil society engagement. The country subsequently underwent two targeted assessments that found continued gaps in government engagement, multi-stakeholder oversight and work planning. The decision to delist Myanmar aligns with the EITI Standard.

The most recent EITI Report produced by Honduras prior to delisting covers the period 2019-2020.
