Hawai'i Police Department Updates Official Email Addresses

The Hawaiʻi Police Department is advising the public that all official department email addresses have changed. The department’s former email domain, @hawaiicounty.gov, has been replaced with @hawaiipolice.gov. Members of the public seeking to contact Hawaiʻi Police Department personnel or divisions by email should use the updated address format ending in @hawaiipolice.gov. This change is intended to clearly identify official police department communications, enhance security, and help ensure messages are delivered to the appropriate recipients. Emails sent to the former @hawaiicounty.gov addresses will no longer reach department personnel.
