Hawaii Launches Business Monitoring Website


Business owners in Hawaii now have a new way to monitor their businesses. The Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (DCCA) Business Registration Division (BREG) has launched a new, mobile-friendly notification service called MyBusiness Alerts.

"Helping Hawaii's businesses run more efficiently and assisting consumers in gaining access to pertinent information is vital to further strengthening our economy," said Gov. David Ige. "We will continue to look at adding more of these types of services."

"Businesses move so fast now, it can be hard to keep pace," said Securities Commissioner Tung Chan. "This new service makes sure a business knows any time a new filing or a change is being made to their corporate record with the state. This can help businesses with early detection if something is wrong."

Through MyBusiness Alerts, business owners can sign up to receive a near-real-time email or text message alert when someone makes a change to a company's official state business registration filing. The service monitors changes to business name, address, status, type, officers, and annual reports.

In addition, the service lets consumers purchase a MyBusiness Reminder that notifies the consumer when company's annual report is due. BREG currently offers free email reminders to companies when their annual filing date is due, but this new service allows others who are not necessarily associated with the company to also receive a reminder.



One year of MyBusiness Alerts costs $25 per business. A MyBusiness Reminder for annual filings is $2.50 for one year per business. For more information and to sign up visit: http://m.hi.gov/mybusinessalerts.

MyBusiness Alerts is created in partnership with Hawaii Information Consortium, LLC, the official Internet portal manager of eHawaii.gov.
