Border crossings in Nicaragua: documentation and road planning
Entry rules, customs and border procedures can change. Always check the competent official authorities before crossing with people, luggage or a vehicle.
How to prepare the journey
Peñas Blancas is a major link with Costa Rica; El Guasaule, Las Manos and El Espino are routes to Honduras in the north.
Travel connections and logistics
Confirm passport and visa rules when applicable, documents for children, vehicle permissions and customs procedures before departure.
What to confirm
Leave time for queues and changes in controls. Do not rely on informal advice as a substitute for current migration or customs requirements.
