Bill > SB606

This bill requires the Director of Commerce and Consumer Affairs to make all business registration applications available online and mandates that these applications include comprehensive contact information for the registering entity. Specifically, the applications must contain the name and full contact details of the business, including phone number, email address, and mailing address. This change is being added to Section 26-9 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes, which outlines the functions and responsibilities of the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs. The new provision aims to improve transparency and accessibility for business registrations by ensuring that all applications can be submitted and accessed electronically and that complete contact information is readily available. The bill will take effect immediately upon approval, and it does not affect any existing rights, duties, penalties, or proceedings that were already in progress before its implementation.
