The ordinance, as written (Honolulu County) — Identification of private transportation vehicles

A copy, taken August 22, 2026. The version published by Honolulu is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.

Upon approval by the director, the private transportation company will direct its drivers on the placement of the trade dress, logo, or company identifier on the personal vehicle or taxicab, whichever the case may be, but trade dress, logo, or company identifier placed on the front and rear bumpers pursuant to this article must be between 2 inches and 3 inches in height, and a minimum of 4 inches in width. The trade dress, logo, or company identifier may be placed on the vehicle’s body, but not on the roof (unless it is a taxi sign or dome) or cover any window, vehicle lights, or obscure the view of any mirrors. In addition, any vehicle for hire which transports passengers to and from the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport must display permits or decals required by the applicable State laws.
