ACH/EFT payment information
The Hawaii Department of Taxation accepts ACH and EFT Debit and ACH and EFT Credit payments of withholding taxes. Taxpayers whose State withholding tax liability is $40,000 or more, or who are required to pay federal withholding taxes by EFT, are required to pay State withholding taxes by EFT on a semiweekly basis. Please note that under Section 231-9.9, HRS, and the accompanying administrative rules, taxpayers whose liability for any tax is more than $100,000 in any one taxable year shall be required to participate in the EFT program upon notification by the Department that the taxpayer is required to participate. Electronic payment shall be required by any taxpayer meeting the $100,000 threshold, notwithstanding the administrative exemption from EFT requirements noted above. Any taxpayer who does not meet the criterion may still voluntarily pay by EFT. For more information on paying taxes by EFT, see Tax Information Release Nos. 95-6, 99-1, and 2004-01. IMPORTANT! A penalty of 2% of the tax due will be assessed if a taxpayer who is required to make payments by EFT fails to do so. If an EFT payment is dishonored, a $25 service fee will be assessed.
How to apply
The Hawaii Department of Taxation requires all EFT users to apply for approval prior to submitting tax payment files.
For more information and to obtain the Hawaii Department of Taxation's authorization agreement contact the Hawaii Department of Taxation.
Payment and other information
Payments are due by the regular due dates for the particular tax period.
