Hawaii Notary Law: What Signers Should Know
Hawaii has a thorough notary framework with a mandatory exam, low fee cap, and RON authorization. Here's what to know before your appointment.
Personal Appearance Required (In-Person)
For traditional in-person notarizations, the signer must physically appear before the notary. RON allows remote appearance via state-approved audio-video technology.
Fee Cap: $5 In-Person / $25 RON
Hawaii caps in-person notary fees at $5 per notarial act — one of the lowest caps nationally. RON fees are capped at $25 per act. Mobile travel fees are set separately by agreement.
$1,000 Surety Bond Required
Hawaii requires a $1,000 surety bond — one of the lowest bond amounts nationally. The bond must be approved by a Circuit Court judge before the notary can begin acting.
Written Exam Required
Hawaii requires all new notary applicants to pass a written exam administered by the Attorney General's office. Renewing notaries are exempt if they previously passed the exam.
Commission Term: 4 Years
Hawaii notary commissions are valid for 4 years, issued by the Attorney General's office. Notaries must file their commission with the Circuit Court in their circuit before performing any notarial acts.
Acceptable ID
Driver's license, state ID, U.S. passport, military ID, or other government-issued photo identification. Hawaii notaries must verify identity before every notarial act.
RON Authorized with Separate Commission
Hawaii authorized RON under Act 54 (2020). RON requires a separate eNotary commission, additional training and exam, and use of a state-approved RON technology provider.
Island Geography Considerations
Hawaii's island geography means notary availability varies significantly by location. RON is especially valuable for residents on remote parts of the islands or on smaller islands with limited local notary access.
