County of Kauai launches self-service motor vehicle registration kiosk in
Li-hu`e Safeway
LIHUE — County of Kauai officials on Wednesday, in partnership with Lliu`e Safeway
and Intellectual Technology Inc., launched the island's first self-service kiosk for motor vehicle
registrations.
"This public -private partnership is part of the county's customer service initiative to
decentralize services and reduce traffic, and give our residents and businesses an alternative
way to pay for their motor vehicle registrations," said Mayor Derek S. K. Kawakami. "Mahalo to
our Finance Department team, Safeway, ITI, and our County Council for their support."
This self-service kiosk will allow customers to pay for their motor vehicle registrations via
a touchscreen by entering their license plate number or scanning the bar code of their motor
vehicle renewal form. Customers may only use debit or credit cards for transactions, and will
incur a $3 service fee as well as a 2.25 percent debit and credit card fee. Once a transaction is
made, the kiosk will print out the vehicle registration and license plate tabs.
A second kiosk is scheduled to be operational at the Kapa'a Safeway sometime in March.
Motor vehicle registrations may also be paid for online at
https://mvr.ehawaii.gov/renewals/kauai.
