Food trucks and other mobile vendors in Kaneohe must secure a City peddler's license under ROH Chapter 13, Article 6 (Sec. 13-6.1 through 13-6.4). The annual fee is $27.50. Sec. 13-6.2 sets operating rules, Sec. 13-6.3 prohibits deceptive sales, and Sec. 13-6.4 sets penalties. A State DOH Mobile Food Establishment permit is required, involving plan review and inspection of the truck. A Hawaii general excise tax (GET) license is needed to lawfully collect tax on sales.

Operating without a peddler's license or MFE permit can result in citations under Chapter 13, fines, and seizure of products under State Title 11.
