# #Honduras 🇭🇳 #BDS\_LaborAlert: Updated RAP Contribution Caps and Rates for 2026

The **Private Contributions Regime (RAP)** has announced the update of the **contribution caps and rates applicable for 2026**, pursuant to the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 47-2024, specifically regarding the Individual Capitalization Labor Reserve Fund and the Housing and Financial Inclusion Fund (FOVIIF).

Regarding the **Labor Reserve Fund**, the following parameters have been established for 2026:

- **Reference minimum wage (highest wage bracket):** L 19,298.72
- **2026 contribution cap (3 minimum wages):** L 57,896.16
- **Contribution rate (Labor Coverage):** 4.0%

Likewise, with respect to the **Housing and Financial Inclusion Fund (FOVIIF in Spanish)**, the RAP indicated that:

- Contributions must be withheld on the portion of salary exceeding the cap established by the Honduran Social Security Institute (IHSS) for the Old-Age, Disability, and Survivorship (IVM) regime.
- The minimum contribution threshold for 2026 will be **L 11,903.13**.
- The employer contribution will be **1.5% of the employee’s ordinary salary** exceeding such threshold.
- The employee contribution will also be **1.5% of the ordinary salary** exceeding the established minimum threshold.

As these provisions **have been in effect** since **January 2026**, we recommend that organizations verify that their payroll systems, salary parameters, and contribution calculation processes have been **properly updated** to ensure compliance with applicable labor and social security obligations.

Please contact us should you have any questions or require assistance with this update process.
