Hawaii foreign LLC registration fee and rules, quoted from the official source

An LLC formed elsewhere registers in Hawaii before doing business there. The paperwork is the Application for Certificate of Authority for Foreign Limited Liability Company (Form FLLC-1), handed to the Hawaii Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (DCCA), Business Registration Division with $51. Add original certificate of existence from the jurisdiction of formation at most 60 days.

Operating unregistered can bring no way to sue as plaintiff in Hawaii courts until it registers (HRS 414-432(a); 428-1008(a)); back fees on top.
