Honduras' President-elect Porfirio Lobo has offered the country's ousted leader Manuel Zelaya safe passage to the Dominican Republic.
The deal was agreed by Mr Lobo and Dominican President Leonel Fernandez in Santo Domingo, officials say.
Under the agreement, Mr Zelaya would go to the Dominican Republic after Mr Lobo took office on 27 January.
Mr Zelaya was ousted and forced into exile in June. He later returned and took refuge in Brazil's embassy.
Dominican presidential spokesman Rafael Nunez said the agreement was signed by Mr Lobo and Mr Fernandez on Wednesday, the Associated Press reports.
The agency also quoted Mr Lobo as saying: "We must all forgive. We strongly defend an amnesty for all, regardless of ideological differences we may have. It is in the interest of the Honduran people."
In Honduras, Mr Zelaya confirmed that the agreement had been reached, the AFP reports. - BBC
