Hawaii DAR Commercial Purchases

Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

Hawaii law requires that fish dealers report all purchases made directly from fishers to the Hawaii Division of Aquatic Resources (DAR). The term "fish dealers" includes fish auctions, fish markets, stores, restaurants, or any business buying fish directly from fishers, and even fishers themselves if they peddle their own fish. In January 2000, DAR implemented a computerized data processing system for fish dealer data collected state-wide. From 2000 through 2019, most dealers submitted paper forms supplied by DAR while a few of the larger dealers provided data electronically. In June 2016, DAR launched a self reporting web application used by fishers who peddle their own fisher. In October 2019, DAR launched a self reporting web application for use by fish dealers buying fish directly from fishers. Currently the majority of sales are self reported.
