What is Hawaii's General Excise Tax (GET)? The GET is a 4% tax (4.5% on Oahu) on all business gross receipts — including services. Unlike sales tax, it applies to B2B transactions too and can be passed to customers.

Why is Hawaii's filing deadline April 20? Hawaii extends the state deadline by 5 days past the federal April 15 date. We coordinate both filings to ensure you meet each deadline.

Does Hawaii tax military income? Active-duty military pay earned while stationed in Hawaii is exempt from state income tax if you're domiciled in another state.
