Trojes Border Crossing | Customs and Immigration

March 6th, 2023 by Jamie Z

I attempted to cross from Honduras to Nicaragua here on a US-plated motorcycle. The Nicaraguan officials told me it's not possible and directed me to go to Las Manos.

There are staffed immigration offices on both sides of the border here, but services appear to be limited. I don't think they can issue the necessary TIP or insurance for vehicles. If you already have those documents, you can probably cross here.

I do not know if it's possible to cross from Nicaragua to Honduras with a vehicle.

Tried to cross from Honduras to Nicaragua with a US-plated motorcycle. I talked to the border officials on the Nicaraguan side to see if they could process the vehicle and give me a TIP.

My Spanish isn't great, and they weren't entirely sure, but after some discussion and a phone call, they told me I could not enter Nicaragua here with my motorcycle.

It does appear that Nicaraguan and Honduran-plated vehicles do cross here, so it might be possible if you're from Central America.

I don't know if it would be possible to go from Nicaragua to Honduras here with a vehicle. My guess is that it would not be possible, but I didn't ask.

If you are on foot or bicycle, I'm nearly certain you can cross here.
