The following statement can be found on the Japanese Consulate website

We are pleased to announce that , by agreement between the Government of Japan and the State of Hawaii, , effective December 20, 2018, , those who have ( proof of Hawaii State residency ) see required documents below , and a valid Japanese driver's license will be , exempted from the written and practical driving tests. , are exempted from the written and practical tests when applying for a driver's license in Hawaii.

If anyone has renewed or obtained a Hawaii driver's license in this manner, we would appreciate receiving information regarding the procedure.
I am wondering what I need to prepare, especially with regard to the two forms of proof of Hawaii residency, since my electric, cable, and internet bills are included in the maintenance fee and automatically deducted from my account, and my bank statement is paperless. I would appreciate any information you may have.

I have never used this method to switch licenses, but ・ ・ ・

Bank Statements should be Printable if you log into Online Banking.
There you should be able to print a statement with your name and address ・ even if it is set to Paperless.
At least FHB and CPB can do it.

I think you can use statements from your cell phone company as other proof, but I don't know. ?
You can also print statements from Papaerless if you go to your account.
Similarly, I think I could use Statements from my credit card, but I'm not sure.

Since it was four years ago, please contact the Japanese Consulate, the Japanese police will need to file a report.

I was OK with the statement I printed out from the bank office last month and the documents from when I applied for my SSN.
When I asked the consulate to issue the certificate, they told me that it will be invalid when the SS card is detached, but would you like to try ?
and I was worried, but at the license center, the document that accepted my SSN application is fine.

It's not easy to make an appointment now, so I recommend getting in line at 8 : 00 in the morning.
If you're lucky, you can be in the room in about an hour, and it takes about 30 minutes.
6 ~ It was explained that it would take 8 weeks to arrive, but it took about 20 days.
