Banking n Driving

12 years ago
My wife was born in Houduras but lives in US. We visit Honduras often. Next trip is early December.

On most of these trips exchaging currency has been a problem. All the info that I read says go to a bank. All the banks I have been to, you have to have an account to exchange money. So I have been using relatives' accounts to do the exchange.

So My question is what is required to open a Honduran bank account? Also can you transfer funds from a US account?

Regarding driving I have been renting a car for all trips. I now want to purchase a car n leave it there for future trips. What is required to purchase and register a vehicle in Honduras? Thanks for any info on this. Juan
