Travel Requirements
A passport is required for travel to Honduras. and back. No shots are required by the Honduran
government. However, the following are recommended by us:
-tetanus if your last shot was more than seven years ago -typhoid (DO NOT put this off until the last week!) -malaria medication, most likely chloroquine This most likely will be chloroquine (a malarial suppressant), and it is fairly simple and safe. There are more powerful malarial suppressants, some of which have side effects. Be sure your health provider knows you are going to Central America, west of Panama, and not to Africa. You will need a prescription from your Doctor for malaria medicine.
You may obtain these shots at the Shelby County Health Clinic (814 Jefferson Ave., Memphis – phone:
544-7712). The Clinic’s office hours are 8-3:30 M-F, and it’s a first come, first serve. Best times are
before 11 am and after 1 pm. Payment by cash or check only.
