Hunting in Hawaii requires a hunting
license whether you hunt on public or private land.
In order to purchase a Hawaii Hunting License, you must possess one
of the following documents:
a Hawaii Hunter Education Wallet Card; or
a Letter of Exemption.
Hawaii Hunter Education Wallet Cards are issued to graduates of our basic course
and you may use it to purchase a Hawaii Hunting License directly from a license
agent.

Letters of Exemption are issued free to those who have an out-of-state
hunter education card or a Hawaii Hunting License issued prior to July 1, 1990.

here for a Letter of Exemption mail request form.
If you're a nonresident without a hunter education card, contact your local
hunter education office and find out how,
when, and where to enroll in a hunter education course in your home state/province.
Once you get your hunter education certificate, you need to fill out and mail
in a completed Letter
of Exemption form to our office. Once your form is processed and validated
you will be able to purchase a Hawaii hunting license.
If you are a nonimmigrant alien and wish to temporarily import firearms
and ammunition into the United States, please read
this notice by the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
Unfortunately, many hunters don't plan or research their hunting trips before
traveling to Hawaii and are turned away at the license agent's counter because
they were unaware of this license requirement. As always, with any hunting trip,
know before you go!
