State Unclaimed Property in Hawaii

The Hawaii Department of Budget and Finance holds unclaimed property — dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, insurance payouts, and similar assets — until the owner or their heirs claim it at no charge. Heirs of a deceased owner file a claim with proof of death and proof of their authority to collect.
