Picking Up Your POV and Driving in Hawaii Your privately-owned vehicle (POV) will be shipped to Sand Island, Honolulu. You may call the Joint Personal Property Shipping Office (JPPSO), located at the Fleet and Industrial Supply Center (FISC) complex to check on the status of your vehicle, or check the tracking Web site at http://www.whereismyPOV.com. The number for inbound POVs is (808) 848-8383. Once your POV has arrived on island, take the Sand Island Access Road from Nimitz Highway. Continue until you cross two stop lights. Take the first left turn into the fenced roadway, at Pier 51B, which is marked with two signs: Matson Navigations Company and Matson Autos. Continue on this roadway, following the Autos signs.
Registering your Vehicle In HawaiiAll automobiles used on the highway must be registered with the State of Hawaii within 10 days of arrival. If you are not a legal resident of Hawaii, you may keep your original vehicle license plates, but you must register your car to get a Hawaii vehicle permit sticker. To complete vehicle registration, you are required to have proof of ownership or certificate of registration; shipping documents; and a Hawaii no-fault insurance coverage. Additionally, Hawaii requires an annual safety inspection for all vehicles; valid identification card; and Non-resident Certificate Form DSL50 (to be signed by your commanding officer verifying your home of record as reflected in your service record).
