HRS §236E-24
Agreements with other states to settle transfer tax disputes
If Hawaii and another state both claim tax on the same transferred property, the tax department can make a written deal with the other state and the person who must file or pay Hawaii's transfer tax. The deal sets one amount that counts as full payment of Hawaii's tax, as long as it also sets the amount for the other state. The person required to file or pay can enter into this agreement.
The statute, as written — Agreements with other states for payment of tax imposed by this chapter
Where the department claims that transferred property has a tax situs in this State and the taxing authority of any other state claims the same transferred property is subject to a transfer tax in the other state, the department may enter into a written agreement with the taxing authority in the other state and with the person required to file the Hawaii transfer tax return or pay the Hawaii transfer tax that a certain sum shall be accepted in full payment of the tax imposed by this chapter; provided that the agreement also fixes the amount to be paid in full payment to the other state. The person required to file the Hawaii transfer tax return or pay the Hawaii transfer tax shall be authorized to enter into the agreement provided for in this section.
