COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS

  • 'Bitcoin Beach' on Roatán is a private special economic zone experiment, not country-wide adoption.
  • Copán Mayan ruins fragments cannot be exported — vendor 'replicas' may sometimes be the real thing.

JURISDICTION NOTES

  • Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula have areas with severe gang activity — verify current advisories.
  • Roatán and the Bay Islands operate a different practical security context (more tourist-focused).
