Legal forms

Legal form	Name	Main abbreviation	description	Category
HN_1651 (CDQ)	Sociedad en Comandita Simple (es) Simple Limited Partnership (en)	S. en C. (es)	A Sociedad en Comandita Simple is the Honduran simple limited partnership, with managing partners liable without limit and silent partners whose risk is confined to their contributions. Silent partners must abstain from management to keep that protection. It allows passive investment in a business run by others. It appears infrequently in modern practice.
HN_2381 (CDQ)	Sociedad Colectiva (es) General Partnership (en)		A Sociedad Colectiva is the Honduran general partnership, in which all partners manage the business and are liable jointly and without limit for its obligations. The firm trades under a name derived from the partners. Interests may be transferred only with the consent of the other partners. It is now rarely used.
HN_3184 (CDQ)	Sociedad en Comandita por Acciones. (es) Partnership Limited by Shares (en)	S. en C. (es)	A Sociedad en Comandita por Acciones is the Honduran partnership limited by shares, in which managing partners bear unlimited liability while the remaining capital is divided into transferable shares. It permits capital to be raised from investors while control stays with the managing partners. Governance combines partnership and corporate rules. The form is rarely used.
HN_3865 (CDQ)	Sociedad Anónima (es) Public Limited Company (en)	S.A. (es)	A Sociedad Anonima is the Honduran corporation, with capital divided into shares and shareholders liable only up to their subscriptions. It is governed by a general assembly, an administration and a supervisory body, and shares are in principle transferable. It is the form used by larger businesses, banks and companies with outside investors. Registration is with the commercial registry.
HN_7924 (CDQ)	Sociedades de Capital Variable (es) Variable Capital Company (en)	de C. V. (es)	A Sociedad de Capital Variable in Honduras is a company whose capital may be increased or reduced within limits fixed in its statutes without the formalities of a capital amendment. The variable capital designation is added to another corporate form, most often the corporation or the limited liability company. It gives flexibility in admitting new investors or returning capital. Shareholder liability follows the underlying company form.
HN_8849 (CDQ)	Comerciante Individual (es) Sole Trader (en)		A Comerciante Individual is a Honduran individual merchant, a person registered to carry on commercial activity in their own name. There is no separate legal entity, so the merchant keeps all profits and is personally liable for all obligations. Registration in the commercial registry is required for merchant status. It is the simplest way to trade formally in the country.	Sole Proprietorship
HN_9077 (CDQ)	Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada (es) Limited Liability Company (en)	S. De R. L. (es)	A Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada is the Honduran limited liability company, whose capital is divided into participations held by a limited number of partners liable only up to their contributions. Transfers require the consent of the other partners, which keeps ownership closed. It has lighter formalities than the corporation. It is a common choice for family and small businesses.

Deprecated post code format identified (Honduras) REPRESENTATIONAL_CONSISTENCY	HN (Honduras)	This rule identifies the old post code format of Honduras. Honduras once introduced a postal code of six alphanumeric characters, two letters followed by four digits, that replaced a five-digit postal code. As far as is known the five-digit code is again in common use today and has replaced the six-character one.	INFO	RELEASED(2024-04-16)
Dummy post code detected (HN) ACCURACY	HN (Honduras)	This rule detects Honduran post codes that are placeholders rather than genuine post codes. The patterns taken from the CDQ regular expression library cover a mononumerical post code with a delimiter, a not available post code, one digit multiplied several times, an ordinal sequence of numbers, a single digit post code and an excessively long string of digits.	ERROR	RELEASED
Mandatory administrative area missing (Honduras) COMPLETENESS	HN (Honduras)	Addresses in Honduras must name the administrative area, which is the department. This rule reports addresses that omit it.	INFO	RELEASED(2020-01-01)
Mandatory locality missing (Honduras) COMPLETENESS	HN (Honduras)	Every street address in Honduras has to name the locality, and this rule reports addresses that leave it out.	ERROR	RELEASED(2020-01-01)
Mandatory post code missing (Honduras) COMPLETENESS	HN (Honduras)	Street addresses in Honduras are incomplete without the post code, and this rule flags every record that lacks it.	ERROR	RELEASED(2020-01-01)

Post code format invalid (Honduras) REPRESENTATIONAL_CONSISTENCY	HN (Honduras)	This rule checks the post code format of Honduras. The postal code may consist of six alphanumeric characters, namely two letters followed by four digits, in which the first two characters refer to the department, the third to the category of post office and the last three to the points of delivery. A five-digit code is still often used instead, and the rule accepts both the six-character form and the five-digit form that is again mainly in use. Five-digit postal codes are currently assigned within the ranges 111 to 116, 211 to 223, 311 to 334, 412 to 443 and 511 to 552.	ERROR	RELEASED(2020-01-01)
Unallowed pattern in name detected (HN) ACCURACY	HN (Honduras)	For business partners in Honduras this rule flags names that are internal notes or placeholders instead of real company names. Drawing on the CDQ regular expression library, it looks for a one time vendor, aggregated payments, a no new orders note, a do not use duplicates note, a reference to another record, a no use note, a reference to a new record, a reference to the former name, a long number in the name, a duplicate record note, a deletion note, a dummy record note, a sequence of digits, unsorted keywords and the length of the name.
