What is the Hawaii LLC annual report?
Hawaii requires the Annual Report every year. The Hawaii LLC annual report fee pays the Hawaii DCCA to update your addresses, registered agent, and managers.
It is not a federal tax return, and it is not a city or county business license.
Hawaii also has a separate tax obligation (None (general excise tax applies)). That is not part of this report. An accountant or tax software handles it.
Who must file in Hawaii?
- LLCs formed in Hawaii
- LLCs formed elsewhere and registered to do business in Hawaii
You still file if nothing changed since the last report.

What happens if you miss it
Missing the deadline can add a late penalty on top of the report fee. The Hawaii DCCA can also mark the LLC not in good standing, and after enough missed reports it can dissolve the company.
Banks and other states can refuse to work with an LLC that is not in good standing.
After you file
Save the confirmation the day you file. Banks and other states may ask for it.
If someone needs official proof, order a certificate of good standing from Hawaii while the record is current.
The next report is due on the same date next year. Keep your Hawaii registered agent active so state mail still reaches you.
