The flag of Honduras consists of a horizontal triband of blue, white, and blue, with five blue five-pointed stars arranged in an X (quincunx) pattern centered on the white stripe. The blue bands traditionally symbolize the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean that border Central America, as well as ideals of loyalty and justice, while the white band represents peace and purity. The five stars stand for the original member states of the Federal Republic of Central America - Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica - with the central star symbolizing Honduras itself, expressing the aspiration for Central American unity.

The design originates from the early 19th century, following Honduras’s independence from Spain in 1821 and its subsequent membership in the Federal Republic of Central America (1823–1841). While the general layout has remained consistent, the precise shade of blue and the exact arrangement of the stars have varied over time. In 2022, Honduras officially standardized the flag’s colors, adopting a lighter turquoise blue to better reflect historical usage and regional symbolism. The flag remains a central national symbol of Honduran sovereignty, history, and its enduring cultural ties to Central America.
