Do Not Call protection in Hawaii

Hawaii formally adopted the FTC's National Do Not Call Registry as its own state list rather than running a separate one, so a single free registration at donotcall.gov covers you. State authorities can still enforce against telemarketers who ignore it, in addition to any federal penalty.

Whatever your state does, the federal National Do Not Call Registry applies, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act gives you a private right of action against certain unlawful calls. Report unwanted calls at the FCC complaint centre and fraud at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Hawaii robocall FAQs

How many robocall complaints do Hawaii residents file?

Hawaii consumers have filed 2,253 unwanted-call complaints with the FCC against 2,115 distinct phone numbers, covering 2014-08-01 to 2026-09-02. That is 0.2% of all state-attributed complaints in the dataset, ranking Hawaii 47 among US states and territories by complaint volume.

Does Hawaii have its own Do Not Call list?

Where do the calls reported in Hawaii come from?

The FCC records the state the person filing the complaint was in, not where the caller was. Because caller ID is easily spoofed, a call reported in Hawaii may have been placed from anywhere in the world and may have displayed a Hawaii number that belongs to an uninvolved person. Area code alone tells you nothing reliable about a caller's location.

What kind of calls are reported most in Hawaii?

Prerecorded Voice is the most-reported category in Hawaii, accounting for 1,058 of the 2,253 complaints (47%). Live Voice is second with 696.
