Limited Quarantine

For those applying for a Limited Quarantine Exemption, the application should be completed BEFORE submitting the separate online Safe Travels application. The new state form has a field to input a traveler’s limited quarantine application number. This is provided to a traveler after applying for it online.

All air travelers need to fill out the online Safe Travels application at https://travel.hawaii.gov, regardless of whether they are seeking a limited quarantine. Travelers between Lahaina and Manele harbors will continue to use paper mandatory travel form.

A traveler seeking a limited quarantine for home-to-work exemption must first go to mauicounty.gov. Click on the orange “Request for Limited Quarantine Form.” Please read all the information carefully, and be sure to provide ALL necessary documentation.

Needed information, including what travelers need to prepared to provide, specifically:

• Copy of a government-issued ID
• A medical letter from a treating physician
• Essential Work Letter from employer on business letterhead. Letter must be signed by the owner/officer/manager of the company and describe the essential work that you/your workers will be conducting in Maui County, as well as the travel dates, job site location and quarantine hotel location.

While your work may qualify you for a limited quarantine, in order to process your request we must have the required document. Please identify with specificity all employees, the travel dates, job site location, and quarantine location (if staying overnight).

If traveling for medical reasons and returning to Maui for an essential job, travelers must submit both of the above documents. Travelers need to take pictures of needed documents for uploading as a photo on the Request for Limited Quarantine Form. (Only .png and .jpg photo types can be uploaded. The system does not accept .pdf files.) The address sought is the location of a jobsite or location of place of lodging for quarantine.
