The County of Hawaii Vehicle Registration and Licensing Division announced today that the computer mainframe issue that arose earlier this week has been fixed, and that normal processing of vehicle registrations and driver’s licenses has resumed.

The Division is extending the renewal deadline for vehicle registrations and driver’s licenses from June 30 to July 7, to make sure that the public is not penalized as the end of the month approaches. Police have also been notified so people aren’t ticketed during the grace period.

Since Monday, the county was unable to process vehicle registrations and driver’s licenses due to the failure of a City and County of Honolulu mainframe computer system used statewide by all of county DMVs.
