Last day to register via paper application for the General Election is October 26, 2026.

 The Voter Registration Application may be used for first time registration, name change, address change, and signature update.  

Each registered voter in Hawai'i will automatically receive their ballot in the mail approximately eighteen (18) days prior to each election.

To register to vote in Hawai'i, you must be:

• A U.S. Citizen 

(Non-U.S. citizens, including U.S. nationals do not qualify.)

• A Resident of the State of Hawai'i 

(Residency cannot simply be because of the applicant’s presence in the state, but that residency was acquired with the intent to make Hawai'i the person’s legal residence with all the accompanying obligation therein.)

• At least eighteen (18) years of age

(Hawai'i law allows eligible individuals to pre-register at 16 years of age and upon reaching 18 years of age will automatically be registered to vote and mailed a ballot.)
