By adapting the notion of chirality group, the duality group of $\cal H$ can be defined as the the minimal subgroup $D({\cal H}) \trianglelefteq Mon({\cal H})$ such that ${\cal H}/D({\cal H})$ is a self-dual hypermap (a hypermap isomorphic to its dual). Here, we prove that for any positive integer $d$, we can find a hypermap of that duality index (the order of $D({\cal H})$), even when some restrictions apply, and also that, for any positive integer $k$, we can find a non self-dual hypermap such that $|Mon({\cal H})|/d=k$. This $k$ will be called the \emph{duality coindex} of the hypermap.
