Signing Requirements

In Hawaii, advance directives must be notarized or signed by two witnesses.[1] At least one witness must not be related to the principal or entitled to receive any part of their estate when they die.[2]

An advance directive may not be witnessed by the agent, health care provider, or an employee of a health care facility or provider.

Revocation

If the principal wants to revoke the powers of the health care agent, they may do so by informing the health care provider personally or with a signed written revocation.[3]

Any other part of the advance directive can be revoked in any manner the principal chooses so long as it communicates an intent to revoke.
