How to Register a Vehicle

Visit your nearest Hawaii Department of Transportation office in the county you reside in. Hawaii does not have a statewide Department of Motor Vehicles. Instead, vehicle registration is handled by each county. For registration information, contact your county’s motor vehicle office:

  • Application for Registration: Required if the county requires a registration application for the transaction.
  • Bill of Sale: Helpful
  • Certificate of Title
  • Proof of Hawaii Motor Vehicle Insurance
  • Safety Inspection Certificate
  • Valid Registration: If applicable.

Out-of-State Purchase

  • Out-of-State Permit: If the vehicle will only be used temporarily in Hawaii, an out-of-state permit may be required instead of full registration. 

Notes

  • Registration requirements vary by county in Hawaii.
