Question 1

Will state offices in Hawaii accept a fax sent from Send FAX Mail?

Accepted Answer

They will. Departments such as the Hawaii Office of the Governor and the Hawaii Department of Administration receive permit applications, records requests, and interagency memos by fax every day, and a fax sent through Send FAX Mail arrives the same as one from a hardware machine. Each transmission comes with a delivery confirmation you can keep in the file.

Question 2

How do faxed documents fit into Hawaii's public records rules?

Accepted Answer

A fax connected to official agency business can be subject to the Hawaii Public Records Act and has to be kept according to the state's retention schedules. Send FAX Mail stores the full log of every fax, so when the Hawaii Department of Administration or a member of the public asks for records, your office can pull the relevant transmissions quickly.

Question 3

Does an island agency need a separate phone line for each office?

Accepted Answer

No. Because Send FAX Mail runs entirely online, a county or municipal office in Hawaii can send and receive without a dedicated analog line or a physical machine in every building. Choosing your fax number is free, and a single account can serve staff across more than one location.

Question 4

What does it cost a Hawaii government office to switch?

Accepted Answer

Plans begin at $12.99 a month, and larger agencies can move to higher-volume tiers as their page counts grow. Each plan carries a monthly page allowance, and a department that routinely runs past it steps up to the next tier rather than paying per page, which is generally far less than the upkeep of leased fax lines and aging hardware.
