Form a Hawaii Limited Liability Company to Control Risk
A Hawaii LLC creates a separate legal business entity that provides limited liability protection to protect the owners (or members) from the debts of the business.
Things to remember in naming your LLC
In Hawaii, a requested name or mark that is identical or similar to a registered name or mark currently on file will be rejected. A name will be considered identical or similar if the only difference from a name currently on file is the phrase “of Hawaii” or the word “Hawaii” or the abbreviation of “HI” at the end. Factors that are used by the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs when deciding if the name is considered identical or too similar to one currently on file are: Purely geographic names, or landmarks registered with a recognized historical registry, those names will not be registered even with a different business suffix, affix or prefix.
