(HONOLULU) – Oʻahu motorists, whose driver’s licenses are expiring within six months, will be able to renew them on Saturdays on an appointment-only basis, starting Jan. 31.
The Saturday hours for in-person service at the Pearlridge Satellite City Hall and Kapālama Driving Licensing Center are being offered to help meet demand for the 110,744 driver’s licenses in the City and County of Honolulu with 2026 expiration dates.
The Kapahulu Road Test Office will also offer the behind-the-wheel driving exam by appointment only on certain Saturdays at least through February.
“The Saturday hours we’ll be offering are taking on new meaning this year as we scale up service to satisfy public demand for driver’s licenses and state IDs,” said Department of Customer Services Director Kim Hashiro, who oversees satellite city halls and driver licensing centers in the City and County of Honolulu.
A driver’s license can be renewed up to 6 months before its expiration date without losing the regular anniversary date. Appointments for renewing a driver’s license or state identification card can be made at www.alohaQ.org
Plans are to offer Saturday hours throughout the year; however, the initial Saturday hours are set through February. Here’s the schedule:
- Pearlridge Satellite City Hall – 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Jan. 31 & Feb. 7
- Kapālama Driver Licensing Center – 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Jan. 31 & Feb. 21
- Kapahulu Road Test Office – 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Jan. 31 & Feb. 2
