Hawaii Payroll Has Rules Mainland Companies Get Wrong

Hawaii has more employer payroll obligations than most states. National payroll companies handle 50 states at once — and Hawaii’s unique requirements are the ones they miss most often.

Hawaii-Specific Tax Filings

Hawaii state withholding and unemployment filings use Hawaii-specific forms and deadlines. We file with the Hawaii Department of Taxation and DLIR every quarter — on time, every time.

Local Expertise Since 1969

We have processed payroll for Hawaii businesses for over 55 years. We know what mainland providers miss because we fix their mistakes when clients switch to us.

Personal Accountability

When something needs attention, you talk to a real person on our local Honolulu team — not a call center, not a chatbot. We know your account and we pick up the phone.

No Surprise Bills

Month-to-month pricing. No setup fees, no exit penalties, no hidden charges. You always know exactly what you are paying before the bill arrives.

Month-to-month. No setup fees. No exit penalties. We have kept clients since 1969 because we do the job right — not because they are locked in.

All Islands

Based in Honolulu, but we serve Hawaii businesses statewide — Oahu, Maui, Big Island, Kauai, and Molokai. Everything handled remotely.

55+ Years of Hawaii Experience

Founded in Honolulu in 1969. We know Hawaii payroll law because we have been doing it here — for real Hawaii businesses — for over half a century.

Most new clients are fully running within one week. After that, your only job is sending us hours.

1

Free Consultation

15-minute call. We talk through your headcount, pay schedule, and what you need. If we are not the right fit, we will tell you.

Quick Onboarding

We collect employee information, set up direct deposit, and configure your account. Live in under a week.

Send Us Hours

By phone, email, or fax. We also pull from time clocks and POS systems. Most clients spend under 10 minutes per pay period.

4

We Handle the Rest

Calculations, deposits, filings, reports. Your employees get paid. You do not think about it again until next pay period.

You Can Switch to PDS Any Time of Year

You do not have to wait until January. We bring in your year-to-date payroll figures and pick up exactly where your current provider left off.

We Import Your YTD Data

Every employee’s year-to-date gross pay, taxes withheld, deductions, and benefits — imported and loaded before your next payroll run. No gaps, no duplicate filings.

No Downtime

We coordinate the handoff so there is no missed pay period. Your current provider handles their last run, we handle the next one. Your employees do not notice the switch.

W-2s Handled at Year End

Even if you switch mid-year, we handle the W-2s. We reconcile all wages including what your previous provider processed so everything ties out cleanly.
