When a tenant is behind on their rent, the landlord must provide an eviction Notice to the tenant and submit a Landlord Intake Form with the Notice to the Mediation Centers of Hawai`i website at https://www.mediationcentersofhawaii.org/. The Notice must include specific language notifying the tenant that they may request mediation.

Where Does the Landlord Find the Notice Template?

Landlords may access the Notice templates for each island by clicking on the appropriate link available on the Mediation Centers of Hawai`i website that will take you directly to the form to complete. Once the Notice is created, Landlords must provide the Notice to the tenant and then upload the Notice through the Mediation Centers of Hawai`i website https://www.mediationcentersofhawaii.org/ with the required Landlord Intake Form.

How Should a Landlord Provide Notice to a Mediation Center?

Landlords must go to the Mediation Center of Hawai`i website at: https://www.mediationcentersofhawaii.org/ to complete a Landlord Intake Form and upload the Notice. Through the website, the Notice will be directed to the mediation center on the island where the rental property is located. Landlords should not mail, email, or drop off Notices at the offices of the individual mediation centers.

How Much Time Does a Tenant Have to Request Mediation?

The tenant has ten (10) calendar days from the date of the receipt of the Notice, to request and schedule a mediation session. If the tenant has not requested mediation within ten (10) days, then the landlord may proceed with the eviction.
