Juan Pineda is currently unable to initiate international adoptions in Honuduras. In some cases he can handle Honduran paperwork and legal proceedings for an adoption that has already been legitimately initiated with IHNFA or with an adoption agency that is authorized to perform adoptions in Honduras.
All adoptions in Honduras must go through the Honduran Children and Family
Institute (Instituto Hondureņo de la Niņez y la Familia [IHNFA]),
which is a social welfare agency charged by the Honduran government with overseeing local
and international adoptions. There are no private adoptions in Honduras.
For additional information, see the Embassy of the United States in Honduras Web page,
Information Regarding Honduran Adoptions,
or the U.S. Department of State Web page,
Honduras International Adoption.
