Is the DMV open today in Hawaii?
In Hawaii, driver licensing is handled by the County driver licensing offices (Hawaii has no state DMV). Its offices close on the state's holiday schedule below — and on weekends. If today isn't one of those, offices run normal business hours.
Hawaii has no state DMV. Each of the four counties runs its own driver licensing offices, and all four follow the state holiday list.
Hawaii does not close for Juneteenth or Columbus Day, but it does close for Prince Kuhio Day, King Kamehameha Day and Statehood Day.
