General Excise Tax Licenses are a requirement for starting a business in Hawaii. It is for anyone engaged in business activities in the state who is not receiving a W-2 and may receive an 1099. This license has no age limit and covers income producing activities that are not commonly known, such as:

  • Fundraising

  • Sales of tangible personal properties

  • Garage sales - if not considered casual sales

  • Tutoring

  • Bartering

General Excise Tax is a tax on the business and not the consumer. Hawaii does not have a Sales Tax.


GET rates are:

  • 0.15% on insurance sales commissions

  • 0.5% on wholesaling, manufacturing or producing

  • 4.0% on all other activities including an additional 0.5% county surcharge for the counties of Oahu, Hawaii and Kaua'i
