Lottery games are legal in Honduras and have been hugely popular among residents due to stringent regulations around other forms of gambling. The lottery sector is monopolized by Loterías Electronicas de Honduras S.A., which offers various lottery types including Super Premio, La Diaria, and Pega 3. Honduran lottery games are broadcast live on national television as well as on various radio stations available across the country (1).
Land-based gambling in Honduras has been regulated since 1977 under the Ley de Casinos de Juegos de Envite o Azar. The activity was made legal to increase tourism development and provide the country with an additional source of income, with the Honduran Institute of Tourism granting licenses to operators. The legal gambling age in Honduras is 18 years for casino games, though lottery players must be at least 21 years of age (2).

Tickets can be purchased from authorized lottery retailers throughout Honduras or directly from the lottery operator's official website. Players have up to 90 days to claim prizes, with income tax of 10% levied on all prizes exceeding HNL 30,000 while smaller wins remain tax-free. At least five different lottery games are played daily, providing plenty of opportunities for residents to participate (1).
