Official Language: English

English is the official language of Belize and is widely spoken and understood throughout the country. Belize was once a British colony, known as British Honduras, and became an independent nation in 1981. The British influence remains evident in the legal, educational, and government systems, which all continue to operate primarily in English. This makes Belize the only country in Central America with English as its official language, providing an advantage for English-speaking tourists and travelers.
