  1. A person requests to view a Hawaii notary's journal to find a specific entry related to their own notarization. How should the notary handle this?

    Answer: Locate the specific entry and provide only that information, protecting other entries from view

    The notary should locate and share only the relevant entry, shielding other entries to protect the privacy of other signers in the journal.

  2. What should a Hawaii notary do with their journal if they resign their commission before it expires?

    Answer: Deliver it to the Attorney General's office

    Upon resignation, the notary must deliver their journal and seal to the Attorney General's office, which is responsible for maintaining notary records.

  3. A Hawaii notary performs five separate notarial acts for the same signer on the same day. How should the journal entries be recorded?

    Answer: Five separate, individual entries, one for each notarial act

    Each notarial act requires its own separate journal entry, even if all acts are for the same signer on the same day.

  4. Can a Hawaii notary use correction fluid (white-out) to fix an error in their journal?

    Answer: No, errors should be corrected by drawing a single line through the error, initialing, and writing the correction nearby

    Correction fluid compromises the journal's integrity. The proper method is a single line through the error with the notary's initials and the correct information written nearby.

  5. A Hawaii notary's journal is full and they need a new one. What should they do with the completed journal?

    Answer: Store it securely as a permanent record alongside the new journal

    The completed journal must be stored securely by the notary as a permanent record. It remains the notary's responsibility until commission termination.

  6. What information about the identification method must be recorded in a Hawaii notary's journal?

    Answer: The type of ID, the ID number, and the issuing authority

    Journal entries should include the type of identification document, its number, and the issuing authority to create a verifiable record of how identity was established.
