Hawaii HB699 prohibits insurers from discriminating based on dog breed and limits pet-related fees for renters.

Hawaii HB699 aims to protect pet owners by preventing insurers from denying, canceling, or charging higher rates for homeowners, renters, and dwelling fire policies based on dog breed. It also prohibits landlords from charging extra monthly fees for pets, except in specific cases. Additionally, the bill limits the amount landlords can charge for a pet deposit to one-third of one month's rent. The bill takes effect upon approval and applies to insurance policies and rental agreements made after its effective date.
