Hawaii Divorce Records
To begin, add a divorce record or view a list of locations and resources for Hawaii divorce records.
Divorce records are often the most difficult of public records to find, and Hawaii divorce records are largely the same. Whereas all other vital records from Hawaii often stretch back into the 19th century, divorce records only date back to 1951. This makes finding older genealogical records harder.
In Hawaii, the statute HRS 338-18 governs public documents and privacy. Those with detailed questions should consult this legislation. Generally speaking, those who have a legal interest in the divorce records at hand can access them, as well as genealogy researchers who can prove the document relates to their research.
Records requests can be submitted in person or in writing, but more and more people are choosing to focus their search efforts on internet public records finders, which are a great way to get the documents you need while saving valuable time.
