List of Catholic dioceses in Honduras
The Roman Catholic Church in Honduras comprises only a Latin hierarchy, joined in the national episcopal conference, comprising a single ecclesiastical province (covering all and only Honduras), headed by the Metropolitan archbishop of the capital, with nine suffragan dioceses each headed by a bishop.
There are no Eastern Catholic, pre-diocesan or other exempt jurisdictions.
There are no titular sees. All defcunt jurisdictions have current successor sees.
There is an Apostolic Nunciature to Honduras as papal diplomatic representation (embassy-level), in the national capital Tegucigalpa.
