What is the Código postal format in Honduras?

The format is NNNNN (N = digit, A = letter), for example 11101. 5-digit codes introduced by Honducor; the first two digits identify the department (e.g. 11 = Francisco Morazán / Tegucigalpa, 21 = Cortés / San Pedro Sula). UPU also documents a 2-letter department + 4-digit variant (e.g. FM11101), but the numeric form is what circulates. Codes are still rarely used in everyday mail, which often relies on the colonia/barrio name and city instead.

How do you write an address in Honduras?

Honduras addresses are written from the smallest unit to the largest. Addresses go from smallest unit to largest: recipient, street (avenida/calle/boulevard) with house number, then the colonia or barrio (neighborhood), then postal code + city on one line, then the country. The department is normally not written. In practice the postal code is frequently omitted, landmark-based directions ("frente a...", "contiguo a...") are common, and P.O. boxes (Apartado Postal) are widely used for reliable delivery.
