About Property Taxes in Hawaii
Hawaii has the lowest effective property tax rates in the United States. The state is divided into four counties — Honolulu (Oahu), Maui, Hawaii (Big Island), and Kauai — and property taxes are administered entirely at the county level. Each county has its own tax rates and exemption programs, and rates vary significantly between counties. Property is assessed at 100% of market value, but Hawaii's low millage rates mean that even high-value properties pay relatively modest taxes. Residents who use their property as a primary home generally receive significantly lower rates than investors or vacation rental owners.
Payment & Assessment
Hawaii property taxes are billed and due in two equal installments: First installment: Due August 20 Second installment: Due February 20 A penalty of 10% applies to late payments, plus interest. Most counties offer online payment, payment by mail, and in-person payment at the county real property tax division. Contact your specific county for payment portal links and additional options.
