Character: History of honesty, truthfulness, financial integrity and fair dealing; an unsatisfied undisputed contracting debt or judgment within the preceding six years creates the statutory presumption against financial integrity.
Classification selection: This pathway concerns the indicated classification. An application for multiple classifications must satisfy each classification separately; these classification-specific pathways are cumulative, not interchangeable examination alternatives.
Conditional agreement: Applicant or licensee must agree in writing to the Board conditions; Board may withdraw the license without a hearing for breach or conduct contrary to the public interest.
Conditional eligibility: The Board may issue or renew conditionally where not all requirements are met, disciplinary grounds exist, or other public-interest circumstances warrant it; the conditional license has the same licensing requirements and fees as an unconditional license and remains conditional for at least one year.

Application: File the signed application, supporting documents and application fee; Board approval is necessary before examination registration.
Character: History of honesty, truthfulness, financial integrity and fair dealing; an unsatisfied undisputed contracting debt or judgment within the preceding six years creates the statutory presumption against financial integrity.
Classification examination: HAR 16-77-40 requires the written specialized-knowledge examination in this requested classification. The official sources obtained do not resolve that slot to a named currently offered examination; it remains a condition, without inventing an exam or substituting the parent-class examination.
Classification selection: This pathway concerns the indicated classification. An application for multiple classifications must satisfy each classification separately; these classification-specific pathways are cumulative, not interchangeable examination alternatives.
Conditional agreement: Applicant or licensee must agree in writing to the Board conditions; Board may withdraw the license without a hearing for breach or conduct contrary to the public interest.

Business and Law (practice unavailable)

Age: The qualifying sole proprietor or RME must be at least 18 years old (HRS 444-11(a)(5)).
Application: File the signed application, supporting documents and application fee; Board approval is necessary before examination registration.
Bond: Submit and maintain a surety bond if imposed by the Board.
Character: History of honesty, truthfulness, financial integrity and fair dealing; an unsatisfied undisputed contracting debt or judgment within the preceding six years creates the statutory presumption against financial integrity.
Classification examination: HAR 16-77-40 requires the written specialized-knowledge examination in this requested classification. The official sources obtained do not resolve that slot to a named currently offered examination; it remains a condition, without inventing an exam or substituting the parent-class examination.
Classification selection: This pathway concerns the indicated classification. An application for multiple classifications must satisfy each classification separately; these classification-specific pathways are cumulative, not interchangeable examination alternatives.
Conditional agreement: Applicant or licensee must agree in writing to the Board conditions; Board may withdraw the license without a hearing for breach or conduct contrary to the public interest.
Conditional eligibility: The Board may issue or renew conditionally where not all requirements are met, disciplinary grounds exist, or other public-interest circumstances warrant it; the conditional license has the same licensing requirements and fees as an unconditional license and remains conditional for at least one year.

Licensed electrical or plumbing workers: The Board application warns that electrical or plumbing work must be performed by appropriately licensed electricians or plumbers; the contractor license alone does not authorize an unlicensed individual to perform that work.
Out of state experience: Licensed experience elsewhere may be submitted with proof of that license; it does not create ordinary reciprocity. The Board FAQ states: "No. All applicants must meet the same licensing and examination requirements."
Place of business: Maintain a physical Hawaii place of business where notice and legal process can be served and the license displayed; out-of-state licensees may use the permitted Hawaii agent arrangement.

Conditional eligibility: The Board may issue or renew conditionally where not all requirements are met, disciplinary grounds exist, or other public-interest circumstances warrant it; the conditional license has the same licensing requirements and fees as an unconditional license and remains conditional for at least one year.
Credit report: A current complete credit report issued within six months, covering at least the preceding five years.
Exam eligibility: PSI states that Board eligibility lasts six months and permits unlimited attempts during that period.

The official sources obtained do not resolve that slot to a named currently offered examination; it remains a condition, without inventing an exam or substituting the parent-class examination.

Application: File the signed application, supporting documents and application fee; Board approval is necessary before examination registration.
Character: History of honesty, truthfulness, financial integrity and fair dealing; an unsatisfied undisputed contracting debt or judgment within the preceding six years creates the statutory presumption against financial integrity.
Classification examination: HAR 16-77-40 requires the written specialized-knowledge examination in this requested classification. The official sources obtained do not resolve that slot to a named currently offered examination; it remains a condition, without inventing an exam or substituting the parent-class examination.

Character: History of honesty, truthfulness, financial integrity and fair dealing; an unsatisfied undisputed contracting debt or judgment within the preceding six years creates the statutory presumption against financial integrity.
Classification examination: HAR 16-77-40 requires the written specialized-knowledge examination in this requested classification. The official sources obtained do not resolve that slot to a named currently offered examination; it remains a condition, without inventing an exam or substituting the parent-class examination.
Classification selection: This pathway concerns the indicated classification. An application for multiple classifications must satisfy each classification separately; these classification-specific pathways are cumulative, not interchangeable examination alternatives.
Credit report: A current complete credit report issued within six months, covering at least the preceding five years.
Exam eligibility: PSI states that Board eligibility lasts six months and permits unlimited attempts during that period.
Experience documents: Submit at least three notarized supervisory experience certificates and a project list; for multiple classifications, at least one certificate and a separate project list for each requested classification.

Out of state experience: Licensed experience elsewhere may be submitted with proof of that license; it does not create ordinary reciprocity. The Board FAQ states: "No. All applicants must meet the same licensing and examination requirements."
Place of business: Maintain a physical Hawaii place of business where notice and legal process can be served and the license displayed; out-of-state licensees may use the permitted Hawaii agent arrangement.
Prior qualification: HAR 16-77-41 excuses a new sitting if the applicant qualified by written examination within four years before application or applies within four years of last licensure in good standing or inactive status, in the same classification.

All of the following:

Business and Law (practice unavailable)
C-62 POLE AND LINE CONTRACTOR (practice unavailable)

Age: The qualifying sole proprietor or RME must be at least 18 years old (HRS 444-11(a)(5)).
Application: File the signed application, supporting documents and application fee; Board approval is necessary before examination registration.
Bond: Submit and maintain a surety bond if imposed by the Board.
Character: History of honesty, truthfulness, financial integrity and fair dealing; an unsatisfied undisputed contracting debt or judgment within the preceding six years creates the statutory presumption against financial integrity.
Classification selection: This pathway concerns the indicated classification. An application for multiple classifications must satisfy each classification separately; these classification-specific pathways are cumulative, not interchangeable examination alternatives.
Credit report: A current complete credit report issued within six months, covering at least the preceding five years.
Exam eligibility: PSI states that Board eligibility lasts six months and permits unlimited attempts during that period.
Experience documents: Submit at least three notarized supervisory experience certificates and a project list; for multiple classifications, at least one certificate and a separate project list for each requested classification.

Licensed electrical or plumbing workers: The Board application warns that electrical or plumbing work must be performed by appropriately licensed electricians or plumbers; the contractor license alone does not authorize an unlicensed individual to perform that work.
Out of state experience: Licensed experience elsewhere may be submitted with proof of that license; it does not create ordinary reciprocity. The Board FAQ states: "No. All applicants must meet the same licensing and examination requirements."
Place of business: Maintain a physical Hawaii place of business where notice and legal process can be served and the license displayed; out-of-state licensees may use the permitted Hawaii agent arrangement.
Prior qualification: HAR 16-77-41 excuses a new sitting if the applicant qualified by written examination within four years before application or applies within four years of last licensure in good standing or inactive status, in the same classification.
