For a month-to-month tenancy, HRS § 521-71 requires the landlord to give at least 45 days' written notice to terminate and the tenant to give at least 28 days' written notice. Where termination is for demolition or conversion, the landlord must give at least 120 days' notice.
HRS § 521-71 sets asymmetric notice for month-to-month tenancies. Subsection (a): 'the landlord may terminate the rental agreement by notifying the tenant, in writing, at least forty-five days in advance of the anticipated termination.' Subsection (b): 'the tenant may terminate the rental agreement by notifying the landlord, in writing, at least twenty-eight days in advance of the anticipated termination.' Subsection (c) extends the landlord's notice for major repurposing: for demolition, condominium conversion, or conversion to transient (vacation) rental, 'the landlord shall provide notice to the tenant at least one hundred twenty days in advance.' Termination notice is distinct from eviction for cause, which follows the shorter cure timelines in HRS §§ 521-68 and 521-72.
No specific statutory penalty. A termination notice that gives less than the required 45 days (landlord) or 28 days (tenant) is ineffective; the tenancy continues until proper notice has run.
