Request a License Verification

HAWAII LPN and RN NURSE LICENSE VERIFICATIONS

Effective November 13, 2018

The Hawaii State Board of Nursing will no longer process license verifications for Practical and Registered Nurses. All license verifications for Hawaii LPN or RN nurse licensees who are applying for endorsement into another state shall request verification via the NURSYS website at https://www.nursys.com.

Any verification’s received by this office on or after November 19, 2018 will not be processed.

Verification of licenses can be done on-line at no cost using our license search site at https://pvl.ehawaii.gov/pvlsearch. You or the requesting agency will be able to obtain information such as original license date, license expiration date, license status, disciplinary action, etc. The information downloaded from this site is official license information which state boards or other individuals can download for themselves.

If the above is not acceptable, please submit your written request that includes the complete address of the location that the verification is to be mailed to along with a $15 fee (check payable to Commerce and Consumer Affairs):
