Hawaii — Paid Solicitor Bond
Hawaii calls the compensated solicitation role a professional solicitor. Section 467B-12 requires that applicant's $25,000 bond to remain effective for one year, with registration renewed by July 1. Match this Paid Solicitor listing to that actual role rather than treating every fundraising consultant or online platform as the same applicant.

What this bond does
Provide Attorney General-approved professional solicitor security under HRS Section 467B-12(b), alongside the required registration filing.
- Who needs it
- The compensated professional solicitor requesting contributions for a charity. Professional fundraising counsel also registers, but the statute's $25,000 bond clause specifically names professional solicitors; a charitable fundraising platform has its own distinct rules.
- Who it protects
- The bond benefits Hawaii and is conditioned on the applicant and its officers, directors, employees, agents, servants and independent contractors not violating Chapter 467B. Keep that state-benefit condition distinct from a promise to meet a fundraising target or pay every donor; use the complete accepted undertaking when determining any claim rights.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Is this the bond for every registered fundraising consultant?
No. Section 467B-12 requires registration of both professional fundraising counsel and professional solicitors, but its $25,000 bond clause names the professional solicitor. Match the real compensated solicitation role rather than transferring that clause to every consultant.
Does a one-year bond remove the July 1 renewal requirement?
No. The statute requires one-year security and annual registration renewal on or before July 1. Arrange approved security for the required period and submit the renewal statement; bond payment alone does not renew the registration.
