The Hawaiian Revised Statute 338-178 was passed in 1982, however the previous statutes that governed birth registration were even laxer.

The Certificate of Hawaiian Birth program was established in 1911, during the territorial era, to register a person born in Hawaii who was one year old or older and whose birth had not been previously registered in Hawaii. The Certificate of Hawaiian Birth Program was terminated in 1972, during the statehood era.

The computer-generated Certification of Live Birth is used by the state of Hawaii IN LIEU OF the Certificate of Live Birth, or if originally filed, a Delayed Certificate of Birth, or even a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. For verification purposes, however, the Certification of Live Birth does not indicate which birth record root document(s) that the Certification is based upon.
