Hawaii's Registration Requirement

As of January 1, 2026, Hawaii requires all pharmacy technicians to hold a state certificate of registration — a recent change. PTCB/NHA certification is not required unless the technician will administer vaccines. No formal training-hour requirement for the base registration. Fee varies by registration-year parity ($130 even years / $80 odd years) due to a Compliance Resolution Fund surcharge.
