Bill > SB606

This bill modifies the Hawaii Revised Statutes to require the Director of Commerce and Consumer Affairs to make all business registration applications available online and mandate that these applications include comprehensive contact information for the registering entity. Specifically, the bill adds a new subsection to the existing law that requires online availability of business registration applications and stipulates that these applications must contain the name and contact details (including phone number, email address, and mailing address) of the business or entity registering. The addition is part of the broader responsibilities of the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, which is tasked with protecting consumer interests, setting standards for business licensing, and overseeing various professional and commercial registration processes. By mandating online application availability and detailed contact information, the bill aims to improve accessibility, transparency, and communication for businesses and regulatory agencies in Hawaii.
